In theory the mail script is just a python script in svnadmin so we can change 
it.  I know several folks miss the subject lines from CVS that had all the 
filenames (so you could easily search for commit e-mails to a file by 
searching subjects in a mail client like kmail), and excluding paths that 
only have property changes at the same time would probably be good.
