Scanning from the Finder

Doing a bit of thinking about the existing feature set in the product and wanted to get some feedback. Today there is a feature that allows you to scan a folder or file from the Finder (right click and select Scan with Sophos Anti-Virus). There isn't any specific configuration for this option, it just uses whatever settings are configure for Scan Local Drives.

Looking for some feedback from users with strong feelings about this feature (scanning from the Finder). Something you use regularly? Would you miss it if we took away this feature? If we keep it, do you want to configure it separately? If you're thinking "meh, could live with it or without it" then no need to reply. If you feel really strongly, let me know about it in this thread.

I think I may just have thought of what's happening here.
When Auto-Update does an actual product update (not just a detection update) that replaces the plugin, the old architecture is torn down and the files replaced with the new versions. The result of this is that until you log out and back in after an update, contextual scanning will not be available.
Does this fit with what people are seeing?
