A "broken" .desktop file like that would very likely also have a broken
ExerNoArgs entry, no?
As far as the specification goes, env is the program that is being excuted,
the other elements are arguments to it.
If wine cannot accept the prefix as a command line argument, then this should
use a script that adjusts the environment accordingly before calling the
binary.
I just don't see how adding an addtional key would make people who prefer
hacks over proper solutions magically use proper solutions.
Cheers,
Kevin
