You are being given a false argument.  If the application which
connects to MySQL is running on that windows box then there already is
a MySQL client on that machine, albeit a specialized one.  Putting a
plain old client console on that same box does not hurt anything, not
even security unless you leave a text file full of passwords laying
around.  Having that console on the same host as the application is
invaluable not only for data-dumping jobs like this one, but for all
kinds of trouble shooting in general.
