OK, that's a reason, but not a good one. Suppose a problem is caused
by having both software A and software B installed. You have software
A installed. No problem. You then install software B. Problem. You
uninstall software B. No problem. But then consider an alternate
scenario. You have software B installed. No problem. You then install
software A. Problem. You uninstall software A. No problem. With your
faulty logic, in scenario 1, you'd conclude that the root of the
problem is in B, but in scenario 2, you'd conclude that the root of
the problem is in A. But which is it?

You haven't refuted the strongest evidence that TSVN isn't the root of
the problem: someone who's has experience with context menu
extensions, and has experience with TSVN says that the problem is not
in TSVN. He has even provided a possible technical reason why TSVN
exposes the problem, without the problem being in TSVN: "Only if those
extensions don't set the rectangle param (correctly) and if they don't
pass the verbs for each menu item will this happen." Again, you don't
refute that--you only reiterate the claim that TSVN *must* be the
problem.

I really hope you're not a programmer, because if you are, you sound
like a really bad one.
