OnCommand core on windows - why is Domain required?

From the installation guide:

"The system that you use for your Core Package installation must belong to a domain rather than a workgroup."

Why is this so and will this always be the case? I have several customers with standalone OM 4.x servers that want to upgrade.

TIA;

With Domain, it make simple it use AD authentication, none of the feature break if its not a Domain. Work group is also fine.

Thanks. So I guess the wording in the documentation could be changed...
