Tiny user help inconsistency

Was just looking at the command line output and noticed a slight inconsistency 
with the quotes:

   D:\>svn checkout --user rob
   svn: invalid option: --user
   Type 'svn help' for usage.

   D:\>svn help
   usage: svn <subcommand> [options] [args]
   Type "svn help <subcommand>" for help on a specific subcommand.

In the first the command the user should type uses single quotes rather than 
the second which uses doublecase quotes.

All with v1.0.6 so I'm sorry if its been noticed/fixed since.

Rob

OK, but - sorry to point this out afterwards - you didn't search for the other instances of the same thing (in svnadmin, svnlook, ...).
