** Description changed:

  After launching a Wine app from terminal or via gnome-do, it appears in the 
launcher with the Wine icon, instead of its own icon. The title is "Wine Window 
Program Loader" instead of the proper application name.
  It can't be favorited since it will favorite the wine executable itself.
  And obviously different wine apps are all grouped under the same launcher 
icon.
  
  See also bug #635223 about Wine applications not showing up in the dash.

+ 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ 
+ A way to fix this is to make all the Wine generated .desktop file to
+ include a StartupWMClass value that matches the instance name of the
+ related program (generally the .exe file name to be executed).
+ 
+ So for example, a "Mozilla Firefox.desktop" file can be easily fixed adding 
this parameter:
+  StartupWMClass=firefox.exe
+ 
+ Wine should try to add this information at file generation time.
