Installation of Wine package provides some .directory files in
~/.local/share/desktop-directories - these provide folders for the
"wine" and "Programs" namespace.  However, these are duplicated by the
.directory files the package itself provides so they should get ignored
(the package provides them so the Wine folder appears after installing
the package but before running Wine, as well as to populate the initial
links such as Browse C: Drive)

After installing programs, Wine then adds .desktop files in subfolders
within ~/.local/share/applications/wine/Programs.  These don't contain a
category, however Gnome is smart enough to put them in the appropriate
folder, because it learns this via their path.


In the past I seem to remember a bug or two about Wine links just appearing 
entirely within Applications->Other (rather than their proper subfolders, eg 
Wine->Programs->World of Warcraft), presumably because the directories stopped 
being read.
