Congratulations, you're in the top 0.0001% of Winows home users that actually use proper user accounts! I love you. I really do. (MS Windows users that use proper user accounts seem to be far outnumbered by the people that ask for multiple "LimeWire users" in a single Windows user account, with files hidden from each other, even though they use one Windows user account.... which would pretty much involve implementing an SMB server in Java in order to implement some kind of cryptographic loopback filesystem or some other ugly hack in an attempt to poorly re-implement features already present in the OS... but I digress.)

Unfortunately, the demand for a feature to install shortcuts on all accounts under Windows is very low, and the potential for bugs is non-zero. If such a feature has a subtle bug that has a 1 in 1 million chance of causing a problem, it's going to cause more problems than it solves, and the problems it creates will likely be bigger than the problems it solves.
