Title:
  Permission checking dialog leaves users confused about what to do next

Status in mime-support package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in wine1.2 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in Baltix:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: wine1.2

  I've received many reports now about the new permissions dialog from
  users.  It's simply too confusing and unhelpful - most think it's an
  error message and that Wine simply won't work with the executable they
  downloaded.

  It needs to be changed to make it more obvious that it's not running
  intentionally and that the user can fix this if they wanted to run the
  program.
