Console/Startup Form Configuration

I happened to notice that it is possible to set VS configuration settings in
VB2003 for what is otherwise a Windows application project such that Output
Type can be set to Console and a form is set as the startup item. This
produces a blank console window with the form sitting on top and except for
that the app I tried it on appears to work normally. Are there any
situations in which one could put this to good use and is there any way to
get the form and the console window to talk to each other?
