And why there couldn't be additional option introduced for AppDefaults
sections to instruct Wine to apply AppDefaults for child processes too?  

If we cannot fix the situation by using the win32-process name, maybe the
situation would be easier to fix if we'd using the name of its parent
win32-process or even name of the its first ancestor win32-process?

Lets name the option "ChildProcessInheritsAppDefaults", for example.

How hard it would be to implement such parent-to-child option replication?
