Yeah, I have seen especially Dan Kegel submitting numerous bugs with regards to
the CSn-series. However, I am not nearly as initiated, so when I look at the
logs I have problems knowing what to report, because I don't know which tricks
are "legal" to make a certain application work in wine. 

For example, It would feel kind of pointless to file a ".NET 3.5 is not
implemented" bug.

In this case, IE6 seems to be allowed since there is some unspecified problem
with gecko. gdiplus as well, if I look at the Dan's "How Bugs Affect
Application".

So what does that mean? Should I always try installing IE6 and gdiplus before
making a bug report? 

My point is, if an application requires that winetricks redistributables(which
never will be implemented in wine) are installed, shouldn't that say somewhere?
Like a version-level installation instruction field? Wouldn't that make it much
easier to control and lessen the amount of questions?

Just a thought.
