Only if the application allows it, i.e. has a mode that does not need to
interact with the window manager, something like "run in the background".  Also
if the app runs in a text output only mode, non-graphical.

You could try "app &" instead of "cygstart app", but if the app is graphical it
will try to open a window which will fail.

And on a different subject, ssh doesn't run as SYSTEM, the daemon sshd does but
if you did set privilege separation the remote ssh runs as the user that logged in.
