But if it has been filed four years ago, the request can be considered
as ignored or non-existing.


Sorry, but this sound a little bit like 'it has been ignored for four
years, but don't file another, we already have one to be ignored...'



(And again:  svn:externals would not be the solution of the problem,
even if it was possible for files. The solution has to solve the
problem. It is not the problem's task to adapt to existing solutions.)

Or is perceived to be less important than other enhancements, or too  
hard to implement for the amount of benefit that would be gained.

I think he was just trying to say "please don't file another issue" --
i.e., if you can raise the priority of the existing issue, then great,
but filing another one wouldn't be a legitimate means of doing that.
