It's not a 100% solution, but you can use a limited glob-like syntax in the branches and tags lines of the svn-remote config block.  You still need to do some manual work (one entry for each developer), but the wildcards eliminate a lot of the grunt work as individual branches are created.  See the very end of the git-svn manpage for examples (section titled CONFIGURATION).  I use that technique to track a subdirectory of the Slimdevices SVN repo [1], which has a similarly complex layout:

repo/7.1/trunk
repo/7.1/branches/branchA
repo/7.1/branches/branchB
repo/7.1/tags/tag1
repo/7.2/trunk
repo/7.2/branches/branchC
...
