Yolande Haneder, please open a separate bug report if you *really* think that a
problem you found is a bug in WINE. But it is unrelated to this bug report.
This bug report is about a problem with multiuser setup, and only one problem
per bug is allowed.

I think that should be a registry switch (somewhere in Software\Wine registry
branch) and a command-line option to disable this check. This will solve all
problems. For example:

wine --disable-owner-check notepad

Or (short switch):

wine -d notepad

Having ability to disable unnecessary checks is the standard in the Linux
World. Especially this is true for checks that are exist only as protection
from newbie users (or users who don't understand what he/she is doing). Expert
users should be able to do what they want to do.
