What's wrong with the demo in the URL field?
The demo in the URL field requires Steam. In a clean wineprefix, it will try to install Steam but hang on updating it. If you run it in a wineprefix that already has Steam installed, it will open Steam and use it to download the actual demo to your account. I stopped the download when I saw it was 2.3 GB; someone with better bandwidth will have to test this.
This bug was originally for a crash in an unimplemented function that was implemented long ago. IMO, this bug should have been marked fixed then and separate bugs filed for any subsequent issues.
