yes and no :) i see 2 possible problems with this first if she starts from the summary page (which is from where she would start from if she clicked on 'ffmpeg') then she would see the recent history but no directory/file names, she would have to click on 'tree' here
the second possible problem i see is that while directory names are displayed in iceweasel in underlined blue like links, filenames are not, so she might not realize that she can click on them
another thing i just realized is that the blob/tree links on the tree page seems redundant as the directory/file names already link to these pages, iam just mentioning that as some people in this thread seemed to like minimizing the number of links and the length of varous displayed items
also file size and last modified dates would be interresting on the tree page viewvc displays on its equivalent page, time since last change svn revission of the last change, the author/commiter of the last change and the corresponding abbreviated log entry
