I think I did a while ago. The sandbox used to be organised as a
parallel tree to the main tree (in CVS). It ended up a complete mess.
If someone's willing to actively maintain it, then that might be
averted, but experience suggests that they won't.

But using separate repositories is a much better organisation anyway,
it means that your history doesn't get all messed up as it does in
trunk.
