I think  this is a correct behavior of the file
dialog. If an application is started with an icon
what's the sense of having e.g. starting directory for
Word it's binary directory?
On other hand I agree with you that default directory
value should be set not to C:\My Documents, but to the
home directory. We currently map the user home
directory to one of the drive letters. You can submit
a patch to the default Wine registry to point the
default document directory to the home directory
drive.
