This won't work until Apple/MacQuartz
You mean XQuartz, right?
builds an xrandr that works and works properly. The fact that Notepad/Regedit/Winecfg work is purely accidental and may break at any time.
No, they work because they don't have to change the screen resolution.
In general, any app that only creates windows and doesn't need to change the screen resolution will work just fine without a virtual desktop under XQuartz. Only apps that need to change the screen resolution (like full-screen games) need XRandR (or a virtual desktop).
