Windows doesn't require executable to be signed, strip the signature from the PE file and unless the user verifies it they're still dead in the water. Not good enough? Okay, install a new certificate for code signing the patched PE file and sign it yourself.
As for user isolation, it's a great idea but you could take advantage of this isolation with the filesystem method too simply by making the files only readable by an administrator and running a text editor or search tool as an admin so I'd still say this is not an advantage over the encrypted disk image method.
EDIT: Cleaned up.
