You're forgetting that many users don't even know how to use TSVN after
they install it. They first just look in the start menu for entries. And
since TSVN can't be really used from the start menu, they click on
everything there is before they actually use their brain and at least
read about *what* TSVN is and they have to use the explorer.
Now, having *that* function put into the start menu is a really, really
bad idea.

Also, what would that be for a first impression: sorry, but TSVN will
cripple your system, here's how to fix this! Yuck! They won't know that
it's not TSVN that's buggy but Windows itself.
