I think desktop mode is useful in some circumstances like when you want to prevent an application from taking over the whole screen (typically installers or the PowerPoint viewer).
While it may be useful in strange circumstances, it's not the right thing to do. How would you invoke it? What about other non-Wine apps that are taking over the screen? Should they have a desktop mode? And if we go down this path, what next: use ptrace to enhance Wine's security?!?
