The ≥1.7-era libsvn_wc ("wc-ng") was specifically designed to support
having a single .svn/wc.db serve multiple wc's. That's why we have the
«wc_id» column in the NODES table.
As to what it'll take to actually implement this… I'm not sure. If
someone went in and changed «mkdir(".svn")» to «symlink("/well/known/path",
".svn")», would things Just Work™, or?
