To make matters worse, Windows supports many overlay services, and it's not 
unusual to load TortoiseSvn on the same box, with identical overlays. I was 
thinking exactly this when he said that. His point is well made and something 
should exist in the documentation, but the wording will have to be a little 
more carefully chosen. (Although, this information may already exist outside of 
5.4.)

I also didn't realize that the help only calls up section 5.4 of the document, 
and that there is no context help. Ouch.

I don't think it's appropriate to resolve all of this "confusion" in one wiki 
page (5.4), but there are no buttons on the workbench other than the one main 
menu help button. Worse, on the dialogs that popup from the context menu, there 
are no help buttons at all.

Will it be alright to put links to other locations within the document? Perhaps 
we can use links similar to, "For more information on X, read 
_Section_2.1:_Doing_X_with_Mercurial._" ?
