I've added an option to force the blame in revision 11472. You can try
the next nightly build if you like.
But if I remember correctly, when you start the blame from the explorer
(not from any other TSVN dialog), the 'force' option should be the
default. Not sure though since I haven't used the 1.4.x version for
almost a year now...
