As I understand (from the explanation by Russell Howe (thanx:-))), there is a script called wineshelllink that is supposed to install the created start menu items in your KDE menu.
Indeed. It is rather broken though. It works sometimes, but only for KDE <= 3.1, not 3.2 or GNOME2.
Second: from looking at the script it seems that this menu is not synchronized with the actual contents of your start menu, which would seem more fancy to me. Because Windows users will be aquainted with the fact that the Start menu directory actually contains the contents of the start menu.
This is easier said than done. Remember that in future all menu items will be controlled via vFolders (freedesktop.org)
What I would propose is a system in which the contents of the wine menu would be in continuous synchronization with your start menu. That would mean:
So when does the sync occur?
Wouldn't you agree such a system would be better?
Certainly. I look forward to seeing your patch ;)
