Yes, that's possible. Like I said, use the channels Luke!

wine --debugmsg +keyboard foo.exe

then watch what is printed when you hit a key. If nothing appears when
you press F6, probably the window manager is eating it before it gets to
wine (try running it in a different setup to test that theory).
