Windows shell replacements as a frontend?

Has anyone ever used a windows shell replacement such as LiteStep, Desktop X, or Hoverdesk as a frontend? The machine would boot straight into the shell program and never look like it running windows. I'm thinking it could be used in a similar way to Skeleton's MAGMA software setup, where the first frontend launches other frontends, emulators, games, movieplayers, mp3 players, or whatever. You could also set it up to launch batch files like Skeleton's system does.

These windows shell programs give you total freedom graphically, and some of the skin people have made are quite beautiful. Anyone have any ideas or experiences with this?
