I do the following: inside the directory I would like to be a working directory, create a blank mathematica notebook, and in your .bashrc or .profile, define a global variable that stores the path to the notebook. From the command line, just type mathematica $pathname/notebookname.nb & and you will have mathematica launch in the correct working directory. You can then populate the notebook. I have tested this in Unix and OS X, and I think something similar might work on Windows. The disadvantage is that this is OS based(and requires you to modify your bashrc)--breaks across machines.
