Probably depends on how much control is needed once the process
 is run.

Another note (somewhere, forget where) suggests that it'll run
 the process but that as soon as you try to interact, it'll
 die silently. However... that doesn't seem to apply to
 processes created this way on the local machine, as I created
 a cmd.exe (can't get much more insecurely interactive than that)
 on my machine with a Win32_Process.Create and it played
 along just fine.

Well, who ever knows?
