For windows binary persist option works a little bit different way from that in unixy case. (I have
tested in the cygwin gnuplot+X11)

For unixy case
gnuplot -persist -e "plot sin(x)"

The gnuplot finished persisting the plot. (However, no key and mouse operations on plot window are
active because the gnuplot interactive session is closed.)

For windows case
gnuplot -persist -e "plot sin(x)"

The gnuplot does not finished with the prompt 'gnuplot>'.

To my knowledge, at this moment, it is not possible to realize what you want to do.
