Sorry for being such a Mac moron but UX in Wine already sucks big time because
it's made by engineers for engineers, not for end users and especially not for
Mac users. :-)

PlayOnlinux or using winetricks in Wineskin don't make it much better, UX still
sucks. One problem with winetricks is that you apply it to the entire wrapper.
In my case I want to run the PC version of Steam in one wrapper and then
Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas through that Steam setup. I only need to apply
the d3d9 trick for Fallout 3, not for Fallout New Vegas so winetricks or the
registry overwrite is not suitable here. Wineskin allows to apply different
Windows versions to different exe files through a pretty good winecfg
interface. So I can set Fallout 3 to run in Windows XP mode while Fallout New
Vegas can run in Windows Vista mode and Steam itself can run in Windows 7 mode
(just as an example) - all this within the same wrapper. This is nicely done in
winecfg under Wineskin, that's why I am wondering if the same couldn't be done
for graphic adapters.
