--- Comment #8 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello Jeremie,

well, currently there are very few bugs related to appcompat shims topic. Few
pre-XP legacy apps/games that are end-of-life. Adding a new keyword isn't worth
for these.

I'd say providing a hint in the summary line should be fine. Like bug 13994
("Dungeon Keeper 2 Demo does not start with WinVer set to 'Windows XP' or
higher (broken game, requires VirtualRegistry appcompat shim)")

$ wine --version
wine-5.0-rc2

Regards
