Really?  I can understand this for security-only branches (commits there will
be rare, and equivalent commits to the Mercurial branches can be made by others
than the release managers, in order to keep history consistent).

But having the maintenance branches (by then, that will mostly be 2.7 because
3.1 will go to security-only mode soon) in SVN will be a burden for every
developer, since they have to backport bugfixes from Hg to SVN...
