Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 But what many a user will do is

  1. install subversion with default variants
  2. realize some time later that they want mod_dav_svn
  3. maybe do "port search mod_dav_svn" and not get any results and be
 confused
  4. maybe realize it's a variant of Subversion and reinstall subversion
 with +mod_dav_svn, having to rebuild everything

 We're talking on the mailing list about upgrading apache2 to version 2.4
 eventually, which will necessitate increasing the revision of all Apache
 module ports to force them to rebuild with the new ABI. I'd like at that
 point to be able to increase the revision of only the mod_dav_svn subport
 and not have to force a rebuild on everybody not using mod_dav_svn.
