The context menu is shown from the shell extension. And it *must* be
fast, otherwise users will start complain that TSVN hogs the explorer
too much and stop using it.
Your request would require that TSVN would have to do that check before
even showing the menu, and that would take too much time. We'd also risk
changing the cwd which other programs don't like at all.
