I can confirm that the unversioned overlay still doesn't work with
TortoiseOverlays 1.0.14 on Windows 7 (I tested on Ultimate x64). I
shamelessly took the merge modules of TortoiseOverlays 1.0.14 for the
stable branch of TortoiseHg [1] (this will be released with TortoiseHg
1.0.1, which is due on April 1st). Current TortoiseHg 1.0 [2] ships with
TortoiseOverlays 1.0.13 (thanks again to Stefan for the nice GUID fix in
the TortoiseOverlays 1.0.13 merge modules!).
For TortoiseHg we use the 'normal', 'added', 'modified' and
'unversioned' overlays (use of 'conflict' is planned).

Disabling Offline Files, SharingPrivate and EnhancedStorage on Windows 7
on install sounds like a good plan (maybe these could be disabled with
the same method used by the autoruns tool from sysinternals - instead of
outright removing them).
I guess in case the TortoiseSVN project is going to give users an option
to disable them on install, then this feature probably can't be shared
inside TortoiseOverlays, since that has no GUI install part. Or is there
some nice trick to configure the merged TortoiseOverlays at install time
(maybe via MSI properties)?
