If we're going to force users to remake ~/.wine, it would be ideal if we only did that once. Then we could provide some sort of upgrade path if wineprefix changed again for some reason. I'm wondering if the case-insensitive FUSE project could be finished in time - this would allow us to both get a stable wineprefix and a case-insensitive .wine folder. This would save us the hassle of having to worry about converting case-sensitive but proper-prefixed .wine folders. Thanks, Scott Ritchie
