yes, appdomains are really just a part of the same process, so if you exit
the process anything in the other appdomain will be destroyed.

If you want to load some winform dll in another process, I would recommend
you create a new exe that takes information at the command line about what
dll and class inside it to show. Then you can start this new process using
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(...) with the proper arguments, then let
your application exit.
