Those using VS or Eclipse - which are not the only development environments 
on the planet... and I am afraid our IDE is going to target Subversion.

It's a GUI beginners usually fire in their feet with - because I saw many 
who don't understand the difference between the file system and the 
repository, and think that copying or deleting a file should be mirrored in 
the repository too. I prefer to make them work in a separate environement so 
they know it's now a Windows folder.

While most developers hate working inside Explorer - or install shell 
extensions.

Sorry, I don't believe so. It does not contain what I need, or I would have 
bought it already.

Bug tracking could be setup easily by any experienced CVS user. We did. We 
don't use VS, thereby visual studio integration is useless for us - just 
paying for something we don't use.

For beginners I agree, again, experienced user can do without.
