Yes, I found one, will include it in the real release. You can apply it 
yourself: if you go in to LilyPondTool.jar (with Ctrl+PageDown in Total 
Commander for example), in lilymenu.xml
change this line to this:
<macro label="LilyMenu.viewPdfWithExternal" 
macro='runInSystemShell(view, 
(lilytool.LilyToolPlugin.isWindows()?"start " : "") + 
"\""+jEdit.getProperty(lilytool.LilyToolPlugin.OPTION_PREFIX+"pdf-viewer")+"\" 
\""+ 
MiscUtilities.constructPath(buffer.getDirectory(),MiscUtilities.getFileNameNoExtension(buffer.getPath())+".pdf\" 
&amp;"));'/>

As you can see, if you write "start" to the beginning of the command it 
will succeed.
