doesnt use of .NET imply a .NET user (stupid frog icon) and therefore fast user switching service enabled?

kinda bloaty
It may create a user, I don't know (as I don't use a graphical login and have never noticed). I don't have the fast user switching service enabled. If you have any doubts about using the MS runtime and living by any quirks, there is an alternate runtime offered at the nlite website. Personally I have used it just before mastering a new install disc and then I wiped the partition with the new OS - I can't see any residual effects ;)
