You can make read-only dirs with apache/.htpaccess to different
groups of people.
I don't know if you can do it through svn client (I doubt it).

Not where the wine is good ;)

OK... if I'll ever need to make important changes to core or modules
I'll know where to start from to deploy an infrastructure that will
help me.

the trick for having dev/prod setting with multi-site is neat and
easy to understand. Having time to learn how to use the svn hook
system that would be another place where to look at.
