I have an idea as to how you can prevent buildbot from popping up  
Windows into your workspace.  The idea is create a different user  
account just for buildbot and run buildbot in there.

This will also have the pleasant side-effect of making it impossible  
for buildbot scripts to accidentally or maliciously read or delete  
your private files in your user account.

There is a trick to it, though.  On Mac OS X if you start a process  
like buildbot running and then log out of the user account that owns  
the process, that process loses the ability to do DNS queries!  There  
is a tool in Mac OS X to manage such things, called "launchd".  Here  
is a tutorial on how to use that tool for buildbot:

http://buildbot.net/trac/wiki/UsingLaunchd

But I simply leave the buildbot user logged in.  :-)
