Is it a good idea to encourage people to modify the installation directory? I thought it was off limits on Windows, though a custom file does seem to survive an uninstall/install cycle of thg.
I do miss having a global directory like `/etc/mercurial/hgrc.d`. Loading relative to the exe isn't exactly global, since a vanilla hg vs a thg install will use different directories. I wonder if we can slip in a global directory under %ProgramData% or %AppData% or similar.
