You're right. I was generous. Those cleaners that look for orphan paths should notice the problem but it'll vary. It might be an optional, low priority item. Many reg cleaners take a simplistic approach to avoid damaging the system. What with the breadth of Hunt & Peck skillsets, a "remove" checkbox can be the doorknob to Pandora's Box.
Also, the way drive icons are handled has changed between Windows versions and service packs. I could see special casing that registry branch right out of a feature list.
