I was actually wondering when you mentioned it if .svn folders weren't expected 
to be in "external" working copies.  I'm just so used to how Subversion has 
worked in the past.  I expect any sub-tree of my working copy to function as a 
working copy even if it was moved elsewhere.  While it shouldn't be a problem 
to come around to the new way, I though that externals might somehow be an 
exception - as if they were an independent checkout.

Btw, I haven't had a chance to go back to 1.6 to test - is the issue with 
svn:externals referencing a file fixed?  It used to add the file as both an 
external and a regular file so it was conflicting with itself.
