labeling multiple revisions in svn under single label for identification

Is there a way to tag multiple code check-ins(revisions) under same heading/label in svn. For e.g. i have 2 code check-ins(revision no's) 1023 and 1028 and I want to label both under single heading for my reference that they are related to xyz issue. I want to identify using some label text that these 2 code revisions/modifications are related to a same issue.

I'd say you could do

$ svn propset issue --revprop -r 1023 xyz
$ svn propset issue --revprop -r 1028 xyz

I'm afraid, this won't work "backwards"—in the sense I see no way to search for a revprop named "xyz" and get those two revisions back.

Looks like if you'd need that, you'd need to setup something different—like a special remote folder, say, "^/issues", coupled with creative copying, like in

$ svn cp ^/trunk@1023 ^/issues/xyz
$ svn cp ^/trunk@1028 ^/issues/xyz

Or having a (versioned) property on your root folder or a branch and updating it like a key/value text file:

xyz: 1023 1028
…
