A lot of people reporting the same problem for a lot of apps - moving to major.
Source available for VirtualDub.

This is a trivial GUI problem nothing major about it.

S103, VirtualDub 1.7 and Quicktime are unusable, the make all the other apps on
a system unusable too.
Certainly not minor.

The definition of major is: "Major loss of functionality for a wide range of
applications", see http://bugs.winehq.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#importance
I can confirm that a wide range of applications is broken because of this
issue, e.g. every application where Quicktime is used destroys the user
desktop. Unfortunately, there are a lot of such applications.

The apps that blank the screen that way are broken in some form - what they're
doing is not compatible with composited desktops. Vista disables Aero in that
case.
A workaround for those apps that are still maintained, like QuickTime, is to
set winver=vista - that way they'll use an alternate, more sane codepath.
QuickTime for example uses d3d9 for drawing instead of DirectDraw rendering to
the desktop window.

Minor - For minor loss of functionality, or other problem where an *easy
workaround is present* (virtual desktop).
Trivial - For a UI glitch that doesn't affect running of a program
Does "blanking the screen" affect running the actual program? - No.

Not all programs have a workaround. E.g., programs that haven't made a Vista
version.
