Follow-up Comment #1:

Yeah this could be annoying, but IMO only slightly.

On my Windows systems (XP & 7) it's easily fixed in the shortcuts (Desktop &
Start menu) by selecting "Run minimized" in the shortcut's Properties. I have
no more access to Win 8, but IIRC it works similarly there.

Please try this out and report back.

I suppose this could already be fixed in the MXE-built NSIS installer - but I
don't know my way around in NSIS, do you?
Hint: have a look in the makeinst-script.sh here:
http://hg.octave.org/mxe-octave
the Start Menu shortcut sections are easily found
