Wine doesn't register itself as the DEFAULT handler anywhere in the code. All Wine does is to install a few .desktop files in ~/.local/share/applications. The loader/wine.desktop file is not even there on my system. It's installed in $INSTALL_DIR/share/applications", nowhere else, and 'xdg-mime query default <mimetype>' returns nothing for the concerned mimetypes.
What happens if you try to 'xdg-open' an EXE file? On my end, this always automatically launches the application, on both Fedora (using WineHQ's RPM package) and Debian (using WineHQ's DEB package), if I'm remembering correctly. I've also seen "Wine Windows Program Loader" as an option in the "Open With..." menus of various file managers when right-clicking an EXE file, something that should only happen if the MIME system recognizes Wine as a file handler for EXE files. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
