Thats not really news and there's actually an existing report for
subclipse which had been closed as wontfix since svn does not really
support this either (afaik). That being said, this does not affect all
VCS-plugins in Eclipse, I know that perforce does not suffer from this
and I'm relatively sure that git also does not have this problem.
