If you reindent, much of the history of the file is essentially lost -- "svn blame" will blame whoever reindented the code, and it's a pain to go back.

I am not a subversion specialist, but it appears this part can be handled gracefully by passing -b (ignore space change) to an external diff command svn blame can rely on (svn blame -x -ub ...). At least, it seems to work on my station (GNU Diffutils, Subversion 1.5.1)!
