The solution I am pondering is switching to a distributed version control system (like git or mercurial). This has a few advantages such as allowing people w/o commit access to still do regular commits to the bundle they work on (applied to their local clone of the bundle).
More information on distributed version control system -- git. Linus Torvalds' Google Tech Talk: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XpnKHJAok8
I don't think there will be any conflict of having a svn and a git at the same time. We have a subversion server for the default bundles that comes with TM, and various git servers for the bundles that are not included in the default distribution.
I have not tried git or mercurial, so I can not really comment if this would help with the process of the development. Linux Torvalds, who I imagine to be smart guy, seems to be pretty confident about the distributed model.
