A) It's a bit late to add bugs to 1.0.0. Maybe 1.2.0
B) Uninstalling apps in wine isn't that important. A simple rm -rf
~/.wine does the same. I grant that it's difficult if you have a lot
of apps installed, but you could avoid this with using differing
wineprefixes.
C) There are many more important bugs to fix.
