Sure either shell:startup or the registry HKCU or HKLM CurrentVersion\Run keys
can be laid down by the MSI.

But a big chunk of the Quickstart on Windows is reimplementing application
shortcuts and linking to the taskbar, and seems that all is handled natively in
windows shell with Jump List AppUserModelID associations.

Remainder seems to provide a LO managed service to monitor and restart the
running instance in the system tray. There's got to be a better way to do that,
and most Windows programs that need it would register it as a service.
