Ok, I see I'm going to need to spell it out.

For most easily reproducible bugs one can just "wait" for a magical fix to
appear out of nowhere. Because of it's reproducible nature, it's easy to test
if the bug is gone or not, and eventually trace down which commit fixed it
(thus getting the knowledge of what to do if it "magically" reappears...)

Here, we are facing a Random Bug (TM). One of those which trigger is not
obvious/straight-forward (like "clicking somewhere"). Some people - including
me - have reported that under some circumstances, the bug was not reproducible
until several hours had passed (I pushed that to over 12).

This means, unless we get a clean explanation, reason of failure and patch for
this, we will never know if it was really fixed for sure.

This takes us back to issue number one : could a wine dev please help us track
this down ?
