It isn't necessarily a good idea to give the AUT application-level privileges (since that's not really how your app will run in real life).

The A in HTA stands for application I think. Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that if you're running with HTA, you are already in application level priviledge.

Also, in real life my web application is not a deployed application. It is a framework to be used by others. I'm not testing the applications others develop. It is the framework I'm testing. Only a small percentage of my tests will require deployment to actual webserver, in which case I won't be using the HTA.
