Advice for enhancing ext/standard/proc_open.c (Windows CLI only)

Hello,

I am in the process of testing a php 5.3 patch to proc_open.c that deals
strictly with the Windows implementation of proc_open called from a PHP CLI
script. I am trying to eliminate unnecessary console windows when proc_open
is called from a CLI script that provides handles for stdin, stdout, and
stderr. All of the code in my patch is contained in PHP_WIN32 sections, so
it has no actual impact on other builds. A summary explanation page can be
found on github here:

I welcome any advice on how to proceed. For example, is this the correct PHP
internals list for introducing this?
