Basically it would be a boot-to-Leo system.
I used to do something vageuly like this with Dos 6.2 and Windows 95.
I discovered that simply replacing `shell=explorer.exe` in win.ini
with whatever .exe I wanted would make that program the complete
environment. It actually worked surprisingly well for creating a
distraction free workspace --"Okay matt, you're /only /doing photoshop
work this morning...".
If I really needed to I could always call up regular Windows services,
or run other programs, by expedient of /Ctrl-Alt-Delete > task manager

Yeah, I'm totally digging that approach!
To me, the only crazy part of the idea is the amount of work it
could imply =P

Looking at the LinuxFromScratch docs at the moment, and also Debian's
remastersys. I'm thinking that I'm going to dive into LFS sometime soon
here just for learning purposes, and then see what I can do working from
a Debian base...
The hardest bit, as far as I can tell, would be the replacement of
system init scripts with python scripts. I'll have to work that all out
some more, but my immediate thought is that I could simply replace
'init' with a symlink to a custom python script that uses leoBridge to
read from some .leo files in /etc.
More thought necessary, but I'm thinking!
