Subversion behind Nginx

Hi,

According to the FAQ on Subversion, a proxy needs to provide these 
additional HTTP methods:

PROPFIND, REPORT, MERGE, MKACTIVITY, CHECKOUT

http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#proxy


Apache has a mod_svn that provides these additional methods which is why 
most people run Apache when they need to have SVN HTTP access.

So I'm sure you see my question coming ;-)

How difficult would it be for Nginx to support these additional methods 
as well?  There's at least two reference implementations (Apache and Squid).

Regards,
Cliff
