This would definitely make it easier to explain things to svn users.
To be honest, I'm not convinced svn's use of the word "revert" is
really right, though.  Git's isn't *really* right either, since it
actually makes a new commit, it doesn't remove the old one like it
sounds like it does.
I think both definitions are quite reasonable.

The sense in which git uses the word -- "make a change reversing an
earlier change" -- is actually very common in programming.
