I would love to see this functionality exposed more generally. One thing I thought was cool in ReactOS was the ability to explore the registry as part of the file explorer. Powershell also exposes similar functionality (like the HKLM: drive) but being able to access that through common tools like Explorer would make the Windows internals feel much more approachable.

It's possible on Windows too using Windows Registry shell extension[0], which uses Windows Shell Namespaces under the hood.
