Right -- let's first make sure we know what's left to do. 
We currently have the following options marked as winecfg:

[Drive X]
Path
Type
Label
Serial
Filesystem
Device

[wine]
Windows
System
Temp
Path
Profile
ShowDirSymlinks
ShowDotFiles

[Version]
Windows
DOS

[DllOverrides]
<dllname>

[x11drv]
ScreenDepth
UseTakeFocus
DXGrab
DesktopDoubleBuffered

[Tweak.Layout]
WineLook

[DSound]
HardwareAcceleration
DefaultPlayback
DefaultCapture
EmulDriver

What is done? What's left to do?

You are correct, I didn't pay attention. In fact, we can make the
Desktop option also be regedt, it makes no sense without Managed.
So I've made both of them (Display, and Desktop) be regedt for now.

They have a <caption>, what browser do you use? It works in lynx, konqy,
and mozilla.
