Of course that won't work. Wine's notepad needs windows paths, not *NIX paths. Use 'winepath' program to convert between the two.

You can open bug about it, but doubt it can be resolved that easy. The program that creates .desktop doesn't know if a parameter supposed to be a file or something else.
