[Issue 512] recursively add file properties

Just noting that I hit this one again in the following scenario:

We have an svn repository for proposals at my workplace.  Each new proposal has
a directory created and we load in any Request For Tender documents or similar.
 Afterwards we add files over time that relate to the proposal.

For a proposal I'm currently working on, I just added about 50 or so documents
that were supplied by the prospective customer.  These were divided between a
few different directories, with around 35 in one particular directory.

The repository I was committing to has a pre-commit hook that enforces
svn:needs-lock on known binary file formats, so for each file (PDFs, Word
documents, etc), I had to:
 - select file
 - open Properties Editor
 - add new property
 - select svn:needs-lock
 - click OK for the new property
 - click OK for the Properties Editor
This is a fairly time consuming and unpleasant process, and a bit error prone if
a file is missed.

One step forward would be the ability to add a new property to a selection of
multiple files in the same directory.
