Hi, can you describe some useful scenarios and programs where this could be useful?
I don't have a specific example app that I can share here, but more generally, it's useful for apps that behaves differently based upon the running user name. A useful scenario is an app that uses the current user name as part of a heuristic to track the user. This patch could help mitigate that.

this is essential for MSYS2 [1]. WINEPREFIX makes wine installation portable, but once you start wine on a different account, you get also a different user on a MSYS2 shell.
