At any rate, that is not needed for the current version of svn-fe,
is it?  So maybe it would make sense to strip down the patch to just
allow

       cat <blob>
Do we want some sort of type indicator to make it easier to extend? So
"cat blob <blob>"?
I'm not convinced it's needed.  cat-file does that to allow peeling
references:

	git cat-file tree v1.7.1
vs
	git cat-file tag v1.7.1

But the "cat" name might be too valuable namespace to reserve for only
this.  I have no strong preference either way.  Maybe the command
should be named "cat-blob".
