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
