Description:
  I don't understand why we should run Wine(if installed) once user
  clicks on exe/msi file. In my opionion, users keep only installers on
  desktop and removes it after installation. Also keeping every
  application installed in one prefix is not good solution. There also
  should winecfg been running once this case. Of course, we should have
  DB to store information about connection between wineprefix and exe
  file. We can also add other enchancement, like asking to connect
  PlayOnLiinux repository to download Linux installer script. Another
  example is asking user to select application icon and application
  category(probably it need to depther wine integration).
   
  Use Case:
  Peter would like to install Dev-C++. It only downloads it from page,
  click twice on desktop and select create new prefix. Once installation
  completes, he can remove installator from desktop.
