Rather, I dislike that it defaults to being in .wine under my home directory.
I'd be OK with it being inside a hidden file, because it's a single file,
rather than a whole folder that some tools (grep -R, find, etc) would then
search through.

Also, if the filesystem is virtualized from inside of a single file, then the
user's desktop can be an actual folder and wine can track links to that between
it and the real ~/Desktop. In addition it solves a lot of issues with multiple
users in the linux system wanting to share a single prefix (could move the
prefix out of ~/.wine and into /home/.wine or /home/wine as well as allowing
one to have and manage multiple prefixes from within winecfg could become
easier)...
