I do like the idea of a special Lens for WINE, seeing as it will be
dedicated it would be possible to make it a Category Grouped list
depending on the Folder given, eg:

----------------------
Microsoft Office
Word  Excel  Uninstall
----------------------
Photoshop
Photoshop  ReadMe  Uninstall
----------------------
Games
Serious Sam  Crysis  Doom 3  Far Cry  Portal  Half Life  Uninstall  ReadMe


of cause it will have the icons and the Uninstaller and ReadMe's will be 
unknown , perhaps the mouse Hover event can display the TRUE folder 
information, eg hovering Uninstall will show /Games/Doom 3/Uninstall.exe, this 
would enable you to know what each one is for, perhaps you could use the parent 
folder name in the title


----------------------
Microsoft Office
Word  Excel  Microsoft Office/Uninstall
----------------------
Photoshop
Photoshop  Photoshop/ReadMe  Photoshop/Uninstall
----------------------
Games
Serious Sam  Crysis  Doom 3  Far Cry  Portal  Half Life  Doom 3/Uninstall  
Serious Sam/ReadMe


By using the Start menu parent it should collate them nicely even if you put 
them back in to the BIG Lens again actually ;)

The better idea would be to hide all items called ReadMe, Uninstall and
other generic titles that are associated with WINE installs (.desktop
files).
