Well, the problem is that subversion does "whole repository" revision 
numbers, and so changes in project1 will increase the revision numbers 
of project2..projectN. That's one reason. The other is that the projects 
are conceptually different and are done for different clients with much 
smaller timelines than other projects or the "core product". More 
projects will be added as time passes, while existing ones will get 
completed.
Doing it the way you suggested is one of the possibilities. The others 
being:

1. Maintain different Trac sites and svn repositories for each while 
doing tickets and roadmaps only in the "core product" Trac site -- and 
linking to changesets in other Trac sites as needed ( this can be done, 
right?)

2. Use tickets and roadmaps on each project Trac site -- just allow 
linking between them. I'm not sure whether I can link a ticket from one 
Trac site to a Roadmap in another Trac site. Is that possible?

Any other possibilities?
