At last!
That workaround does work on my computer.
I also have those tweaks in the registry:
- MaxVersionGL DWORD value 0x00030002.
- nvidia-to-radeon PCI Vendor and Product IDs substitution.

There's a bug in gnome-shell (current Debian Jessie version) that makes
full-screen windows click-through (that is : not focused, keyboard and mouse
input are sent to other windows or the desktop background). Usually,
alt-tabbing to the Wine window does "activate" input to the full-screen
application, but this negates the alt+enter workaround for this game. I have to
switch to another DE (i.e. gnome-classic) to be able to use the workaround.

The performance is very low (2 to 6 FPS reported by the in-game tests) and bug
43102 is present.
