While executing the command from the command line or a script,  the  
shell (bash) expands the character ~ to the value in $HOME.  As I 
understand it, executing it from a launcher (.desktop) is not supposed 
to do that but it did up to 8.04.  Making the command  sh -c "xdg-open 
~.." would.
Note that, according to Wine HQ, that launcher feature is "Ubuntu's doing".
But I can't figure how then it is not removed when upgrading to a 
release downloaded from HQ.
