Behavior of TSVNCache.exe - locking volumes

From: Harvey, Edward <Edward.Harvey_at_patni.com>

I regularly keep my working copies inside of TrueCrypt volumes, or on removable storage. I often notice that I cannot unmount (safely remove) a volume, because TSVNCache.exe is still holding a file descriptor open on that volume. I have a reasonable workaround, which is to use "FileUnlocker" context menu to kill TSVNCache.exe...

Two questions about that -
- Am I putting myself at some sort of risk that I don't know about?
- Is there a reasonable way to change this behavior, for either present or future releases?

BTW, TortoiseSVN 1.5.1 and all previous versions that I've used.
