No its not, its necessary. Thats something I desperately miss in KDev3
and is the main reason why I use cmdline svn.

Uhm, really? Can you elaborate on the use-case? After all, add() only
adds it like svn add, it doesn't commit anything. If I create a new file
and add it to the project I want it to be part of the svn too.

So what? How often do you add/remove files? Also note that those
functions take a list? And its not a problem at all, adding to vcs
should be async, not sync.

No its not, IMHO. I've added/removed files from svn in projects all the
time, without committing anything. Thats not a problem, IMHO.
