Just a quick note: if this approach gets a working remote helper
in the hands of users faster, I'm all for it.

My only concern is the name: if it is not compatible the planned
remote helper from the summer of code project, they should probably
get different names.  Correct me if I'm wrong, but the main
differences are:

 - this is scripted and uses local svn working copy operations; the
   soc project is in C and uses remote access ("replay")

 - this uses the nice ls-remote output etc.  Ram, do you think this
   would be easy to use for remote-svn?

So, not many differences.  Maybe we can standardize the interface
and consider them alternate implementations?
