            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Nowadays on Linux you do not see your virtual wine hardware drives in KDE or
GNOME because they are not recognized. You have to open "invisible" folder
"$HOME/.wine". Many users will not be able to do this.

Maybe one could work out some standard with freedesktop.org so that users can
easily access their virtual drive C:\ ? Who's work would that be? I am not sure
about that, so sorry if this is not the right "inbox". I would liek to suggest
to extend this standard to other virtual machines like Xen or Vmware.
