Hi. I think Wine applications live too much of their own lives now, making Wine
too much of an emulator. They have their own registry, their own themes, their
own menu as a sub-menu of the system menu. There is a "users" folder in the
wine sub-folder of a single user. They are installed and uninstalled in a
completely different way. There is even a stub of its own system panel. In
other words, they are second-class citizens on the Linux desktop. They are
totally unintegrated. So the above suggestion, which implies separate
associations in wine programs from native Linux programs, seems unwise to me. I
think even folders should open with xdg-open, not the crippled clone of
Explorer.exe as it does now.

So, here's my vote that this bug is fixed soon. :)
