You want to maintain local-only branches then. With SVK, you can easily 
differentiate between "commit" (to local-only branch) and "push", where push 
can be a 1:1 replay or a lump commit which lumps all changes together.

For a sample commit, see how I'm adding network-wide rankings functionality to 
kdegames:
http://svn.ggzgamingzone.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/timeline
(notice that all of the commits were done in < 2 minutes, and all have a 
local-only revision number attached which I can use for future references)

For a simple lump commit which clusters logically linked changes, see:
http://svn.ggzgamingzone.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/changeset/9193
