cygwin does not run quietly if --quiet-mode given on commandline

Hi!
starting cygwin setup-x86_64.exe with parameters:
setup-x86_64.exe ^
--verbose ^
--delete-orphans ^
--local-package-dir "C:\WINDOWS\ccmcache\4r\installdata" ^
--no-desktop ^
--proxy "<proxy-host:proxy-port>" ^
--root "C:\cygwin" ^
--upgrade-also ^
--quiet-mode ^
--wait
It does not matter if "--quiet-mode" is given or not: in all cases
cygwin setup opens a window showing setup progress and the real bad
thing: allows the user on whom desktop the window is shown to stop the
upgrade!
I need a really unattended upgrade with some log written what setup had
done.
And is it a bug? As far as I could find "--quiet-mode" means no window,
no messages at all - am I wrong and all those interpreting it the same way?
