Terminal one:
$ rm -rf ~/.wine
$ wine notepad

Terminal two:
$ winecfg # enable virtual desktop
$ winemine # doesn't go in virtual desktop
$ wine explorer /desktop=name,1024x768 winemine # goes in virtual desktop

Now can someone please explain why this is? Is it because using the
workaround a second explorer process is started? If so, we can extend
the same process and run those apps needing workarounds in a virtual
desktop...
