Yes, ssh for a bootloader may be too much overhead; nevertheless the LUKS way works fine. I don't need a powerful all-in-one bootloader, I just need something that works with Windows like LUKS does with Linux.

I disagree about a network KVM-adapter being teh only possibility for achieving the OPs result. Using VirtualBox or VMWare for hosting the Windows installation inside a minimal linux dist would probably be the way I'd solve this issue since this gives you access to the system console even during the boot process. It doesn't have to be a large dist however. You could strip it down to just some kind of X and an autoloader for virtualbox/vmware. However, the security of this dist should also be considered since OPs way in might become a source to future security breaches.
