    I just recently baked a pumpkin in preparation for pie-making (but then I wussed out on the rest of the pie hassle and just froze the pumpkin) and I am here to tell you that it is not difficult at all to cook pumpkin in the oven. The rind came right off the flesh easily while everything was still hot. I would skip cooling anything and just mash it up right in my stock pot with a potato masher. Cleaning the food processor, though - THAT would not be worth the effort. YMMV, priorities, and stuff.
