Nonsense, then every prog would be misled as to what is present on the system.
At first I thought that Wine should have set it by default (just as mentioned in a recent wine-devel mail), but you're right, I'd say we should only set it once Wine is able to cover a significant amount of IE functionality (i.e. we do have a usefully working browser). Which might just as well be never... The risk of programs failing due to discovering our IE version key and then unsuccessfully and *silently* trying to use our horribly incomplete IE functionality is a lot worse than not having the IE key and thus programs usually telling the user that IE is not available and that he should install it.
