Answering to myself : in the attached script the VBScript in charge of
making the UAC elevation is created only once. Any subsequent use of it
just checks that it has the correct version before using it, or
overwriting it.
On second thought I think that this script is so tiny that it would
certainly be simpler if it was created in the temporary directory and
deleted after use. All the more that it seems that MSWindows asks for
the UAC elevation only once in an MSW session.

Please find attached what I have done.
It seems that once the UAC elevation given under circumstance where
the user has symlink creation right, then for any subsequent call the
symlinks are working well and going through the runas is not needed.
There is still some strange behaviour, the window title does not look
the same any longer, ie start is not working the same way for the
subsequent calls.

PS : Please rename the file to remove the filename extention
.remove-this-fnext. I had to do this because my SMTP server was
rejecting the email otherwise.

Would you like it if I investigate this way and contribute
an update of .cmd
I am personally not inclined to extend the script, but I assume it
will get approved if implemented correctly.
