Basically yes, the command can run in it's own process. Well, it currently does, but TextMate doesn't currently multiplex between output from this command and the normal event loop.
It is however on the to-do, and with regard to having the command send output to the current window, this should/can be solved by only making that window/buffer busy (unresponsive), and even bringing up a window-modal requester to abort it.
It's something I will improve eventually... but short-term I will experiment with having the new output form (a HTML window) execute the command asynchronously probably already for beta 5.
