Doh.  We should probably prevent users from deleting any of the global settings and ensure that the global settings are always present.

Winecfg is using the ~/.wine/config file right now, this isn't writeable so if you try to add/delete apps you won't be able to change anything.  When you try to add the app the keys are created and then the treeview is completely rebuilt, I know, not the most efficent but it works.  So, you click to add the app, the keys are created(but don't create since you can't modify your config file), and then the treeview is refreshed so your changes are lost.
