 <p><strong>Why, then, does the Subversion command-line client not
 always convert its input into absolute paths and use those?</strong>
-The Subversion developers have been operating under the principle
-that, for reasons of user experience, the display of paths in the
-tool's output should match the syntax of the paths provided as input.
-And while conversion to an absolute path from a relative one is a
-fairly trivial operation, the reverse transformation is fraught with
-complexities.  (In other words, it's a hard problem not high on our
-priority list.)</p>
