the point I need to think of is how to switch between the different
backends (taking into account all possible cases)
I may look into that in the next days

Alexandre's idea (for the evolution of process creation is as follows)
- for processes created from the UNIX command line (and possibly with
both Wine and programs arguments) do as follows
- a wine launcher would read all wine arguments (either command line,
environment strings, registry) and create the requested child process
(the one from the command line), setting all necessary arguments,
options...
- it would be this program which would be in charge of
        1/ creating a new console (if needed)
        2/ make the child process inherit from the unix console and/or streams
(if needed)

A+
