I suppose.  But on UNIX the other primary way to run Zope (zopectl)
runs runzope behind the scenes, so the difference between running the
two will be fairly small.  On Windows, you're right, but because of
Windows' process model we can't call a batch file from the service
controller.  But under Windows we're going to change it to write to
the logfile sooner anyway.

Yeah, well.
