So is the conclusion that users need to set up a special new user with super restrictive rights to protect the system from bugs in wine?! My confidence in wine has just taken a knock.
It's the other way around. This never would have been possible with a normal user account. But if somebody "creates a special user" by extending his rights and putting him into the disks group, he should be aware of the implications. I don't think there is a "documentation bug".
Of course that is _not_ an excuse why wine wants to write to the MBR ;)
