I think that it's a great idea, it would make git-svn more like git itself without poisoning the git log indeed. We're trying to do this with the gate between git and mediawiki : http://www.spinics.net/lists/git/msg158701.html. When it's done, feel free to have a look at the code. Doing it with git-svn should be similar.
