Sorry, but I don't think that's the right thing to do. I agree with the help
forum part. But disallowing 'hacks' is not really the right course If you ask
me.
People come here looking for progress and solutions for their problem. The real
fix is still months (years?) away and you can't expect them to wait for that
long. The hack is a temporary solution. Hacks get posted in other bugs every
day. Hell, even Wine itself already contains a 'force' hack. force-box is
simply the logical extension of that, and works well so far for many people. I
don't see why it should be forbidden.
Yes - it's no proper fix. The current Wine philospohy is not to adopt such
things. I accept that. But for the sake of completeness, keep it in Bugzilla.

I know that you, Vitaliy, have far more experience on that matter than anybody
else. I'm not doubting your authority on this. But I don't agree either.
