Which apps? Now that your patches seem to have been committed, I've started trying to find and install apps that require .net, but for some reason I'm having trouble finding many.
For some years now I've been doing an unscientific benchmark of Wine by trying every installer on the CD that comes bundled with the excellent German magazine CT, every two months or so (I can confirm that we're doing much, much better than two years ago).
For some time now it includes the dotnet runtime distributable along with a handful of applications that require it. CT's publisher, Heise Verlag maintains a vast online software database that is another shining example of Deutsche Gruendlichkeit:

Try '.net' as keyword.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa480243.aspx documents this as part of the check to see if .net is installed. Has somebody figured out a canned .reg file to use to fake out this install check?
Good point. Here's a script that does that, modeled after your fakeie.sh.
