If that application is in alpha stage, then report this issue to the
developers of that app! That's why alpha versions get out so people can
test them and report bugs. And clearly, this is a bug in that application.

It is technically possible, yes. But you'd have to change the source of
TSVN and compile your own version.

You can try the setting
TortoiseSVN->Settings->Look and Feel->Icon Overlays->Show overlays only
in explorer

Maybe that will help a bit. At least it will prevent the overlay
handlers from getting loaded in other applications. But then the context
menu handler is still loaded.

You can also try:
TortoiseSVN->Settings->Look and Feel->Enable accelerators on the top
level menu
if you activate that option, the context menus won't be ownerdrawn
anymore which some apps have problems with too.

That's all you can do for now. But really: report this bug as soon as
possible so it gets fixed before the app reaches beta status.
