Then do a s/+/-/ before calling the helper; no-one said the translation between protocol name and helper name had to be 1:1, as long as we document it there is no reason not to? Then again, maybe it's more better to use 'svn-http" or 'svn:http' to make it obvious that it's a special feature thingy.
