I believe it was pointed out in the faq's for some steam game(HL2?) that
demos/mods/purchased games can be installed using:

wine steam.exe -applaunch 17580

where the applaunch number is the number corresponding to the steam page for
that particular game/app.  Dystopia (HL2 Mod) is located at
http://store.steampowered.com/app/17580/  I successfully installed a few games
this way.

However, for un-purchased games this does not seem to work and instead takes
you to their steam page within the steam store.  You will need to use one of
the workarounds above to purchase.

With the latest steam (2010 UI update)  I'm able to install a prepurchased game
just fine.  No cmd line parameters needed, all done with just normal steam.  I
haven't tried purchasing a game and installing it though, but this bug is at
least partially fixed either due to wine or steams new UI
