That's one of the minor downsides I've found with my steam install, I would like to have a running install, and a Test install. But it's no biggy, using JSGME it's not hard to revert.
The only real downsides are the lag that is induced between SHC launching SH3 via steam. SHC launches SH3, SHC then closes. The steam engine then tries to connect to steam, and that can take a while if your ISP is flaky like mine, and for some reason SHC opens up again before the actual SH3 gets launched. Therefore, if I have auto-rollback enabled, Everything that was optioned in SHC gets undone. So I have to be careful using rollback, and my changes to the cfg files.
