Title:
  Installing Wine offers to add useless launcher to panel

Bug description:
  Installing Wine in Oneiric presents a checkbox to add Wine's .desktop
  launcher to the panel.

  However, this .desktop file is actually useless as a launcher - it's
  added solely to open other types of files, since Wine is not an
  application that you open by itself.  Software center needs a
  mechanism for having this option be overridden.
