Um, I tried running
   wine control
and it started running, then exited silently, presumably
because no apps have installed any controllet.

Either we need to fix that doc, or we need to add
a controllet for wine itself, so the list is never empty,
or we need to make control.exe put up a dialog box
saying "no control panel thingies installed".

Well, I think the plan is for Wine 0.9 to ship with pre-installed
control panel applets, so that bug won't appear, but you're right, it's
a silly bug if that's what it is and it should be fixed.
