Multiarch works well now so such hacks are not necessary.
If you use --force-architecture to install something, that means that apt (and
thus synaptic) does not know about it. There is no need for synaptic to jump
through hoops to support this, instead you should configure multiarch on this
system:
# dpkg --add-architecture i386
# apt-get update
In any case, I believe that from Ubuntu 12.04, amd64 systems are
expected to have i386 configured also and many packages require this
(e.g. wine).
** Changed in: synaptic (Ubuntu)
