So in reality, all one needs to do is to port a lot of the code from the explorer.exe into shell32.dll and explorer_new.exe will work fine. :)
Definitely not. People have been shot for less.
if it needs any COM knowledge, I am not too experienced with it although I can learn using teh powerful intarwebs. However, with 7+ years Win32 experience it shouldn't be very hard. :)
Unfortunately it needs advanced COM knowledge and good reversing skills, considering much of the shell is undocumented.
I wish you luck.
