I would particularily recommend against switching WINE to 20866 in light of the fact that the only text editor I know that supports UNICODE is Notepad. Most applications are not UNICODE, and running those apps on WINE would become impossible if WINE did not use the same codepage as Windows. You don't know how many buggy apps are out there assuming things they shouldn't about things.
Probably I didn't make my position clear enough and somehow you misunderstood me and decided that I propose to use code page 20866 instead of 1251 for russian locale under Wine. But that's not the case. I only proposed to create filenames on disk in encoding used natively in Linux.
