TortoiseSVN missing from context menu in Windows 7 "Libraries" folders

1. In Windows 7, open explorer window and navigate to "Computer".

2. Click to go to any library in the "Libraries" folder on the left
side, for instance the "Documents" library folder.

3. Right-click an empty area in the files list to open a context menu.
No TortoiseSVN options are available.

4. Try to expand the "Documents" folder to reveal "My Documents" and
"Public Documents", which are the two folders that constitute
"Documents" library in the typical case. The context menu for both
folders are also missing the TortoiseSVN options.

5. Now navigate the "My Documents" or "Public Documents" manually, such
as C:\Users\<My User>\Documents .
Right-click and now the TortoiseSVN options _are_ available.

This issue seems to affect all library folders when navigating through
the Libraries folder.
One can create new library folders, such as a "Repositories" folder with
links to several folders with repos, but this also have the same issue.

This behavior has been confirmed in Windows 7 x64 Professional RC and
Windows 7 x64 Home RTM versions.
It is not certain if this is a Windows 7 bug or a TortoiseSVN bug.

Best regards,
Andreas Larsen
