Multi does this in a cool way.

For 3 & 4 maybe you should make a batch file (say, quake3.bat) like this :

c:
cd "c:\program files\quake" (or whatever)
if "%1"="null" goto noopt
start quake3.exe %1
goto end
:noopt
start quake3.exe
:end

...and then make an alias such as :

quake3|c:\quake3.bat %s

I guess it should solve point 3, and allow for options. As you says DQSD doesnt accept 
%s="" (weird... are you sure ?), a workaround is to type "quake3 null" (thanks to line 
3 of batch file)

IIRC, autocomplete doen't really work (unfortunately). And if it did, I guess it 
wouldn't work the way the "execute" box in Win2K & WinXP does (by guessing a path), 
but rather by recalling a previous command entered in DQSD.

HTH,
