Oh, I should also note for posterity that this only affects full-screen games
running at full resolution.  If the game switches resolution, then the displays
are captured and Command-Tab behaves differently.  When the displays are
captured, the OS doesn't handle Command-Tab.  The keystroke is received by the
Mac driver, which releases the capture and hides itself (roughly as a means of
switching to the next app).

Because of this, you can access your other apps just fine.

When you switch back to the Wine process, it shows but doesn't automatically
recapture the display nor change the resolution back.  Ideally, the Windows
game should do that, but not all do.  So, it often ends up showing in just a
corner of the screen with the Mac menu bar and Dock visible.  Some day I may
make the Mac driver recapture the displays and restore the game's chosen
resolution.
