Well, it's the way MS Windows does it:
Explorer is responsible to start up anything that's launched after login.
To start non-gui programs in console mode we would have to do it a bit different.
As I understand console mode will be some thing unique to ReactOS, this
is no problem. We just can do what we think is the best.
We should use some different registry entries because it doesn't make sense
to start gui-applications in console mode. It should be a different set of processes.

Will winlogon.exe be used in console mode?
If yes, I would say let's do it there.
