Services usually are run under a user account that has no access to the
desktop. (The alternative is frequently one that has no access to the
network.)

By their nature, services aren't supposed to be talking directly to
users at the console, so yes, create a separate GUI app that mediates
with the service. It'll probably be better partitioning anyway.
