If the battery is good enough to start the car, it would take a very long time to draw the battery voltage down to where it wouldn't run the ECU and fuel pumps with the alternator doing as much as it could at idle.

I think you would probably toast the power window motor before you would run out of battery voltage. Power window motors are not made for continuous duty.

What is the pertinence of the question to real world car maintenance?
