This is pretty much what I am thinking, as well. I went to actually implement this, and ran into a problem. When I propedit the svn:externals, I cannot do something like:
. svn+ssh://server.com/svn/repos/home
where home is a repository of what i want to appear in $HOME. I suppose I could pop up to /home on the client machine and edit the properties like
username svn+ssh://server.com/svn/repos/home
but that is weird as I would essentially be working outside of my home dir.
Is there a better way to do this?
