Java Web Start is unusable for console application?

Hi,

Web Start apps:
- cannot accept command line parameters from client (javaws)
- cannot access client's environment variables
- cannot be waited for by 'javaws -wait' (win32), it simply doesn't work

I can erase the client's harddisk and copy trojans and pedophile images, but cannot accept simple parameters??? Why??

Or is this an intentional behaviour?
These render JWS a totally unusable technology for me.
