Will the log clearly identify cases where a patched version of Wine has been used? Because patched Wine will not be supported here. 

I notice the log you posted happens to indicate gecko was not installed. What I said to doh123 applies to your users, too: a wineprefix without gecko is broken. Don't send anyone here without it.

I can only speak for myself, but I am willing to take a look at these logs, and if what I see assures me that the Wine used is unpatched and no unnecessary dlls or other tweaks applied, help the user troubleshoot the problem using the same steps I would take with any other user. But you need to make it clear to your users that those "same steps" often  involve a plain, unscripted reinstall to a clean wineprefix using the latest development release.
