The new dumbed down "Open With" properties don't allow me to pick wine for opening .exe files. (also, I cannot pick command line programs like mplayer for videos)

Therefore, the dialog effectively doesn't work for half of the applications. It is Linux, there ARE useful command line programs! (which I suppose the dialog ignores?) Please stop ignoring them and consider a fix.
