It appears that Mike has been doing a lot of work on this.

So you probably first want to coordinate with him.
I would start by running "winecfg", and seeing what doesn't work, which
is a lot. For example, on the very first tab, you can select a "Windows
Version", but changing the setting doesn't actually change anything (it
should make/alter a registry entry). The winecfg code is in
wine/programs/winecfg.
A long discussion of things that are needed is in the thread starting:
http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2004/08/0007.html
In fact, you probably want to go to:
http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2004/08/index.html
http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2004/09/index.html
And then search for all subjects containing winecfg.
By the way, I really do like the look mentioned here:
http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2004/09/0220.html
It is much improved over the current look. Hopefully that will become
part of winecfg.
