wine-1.2
Ubuntu 10.04

To reproduce run winecfg and:
1. open "Applications" tab and select "Default Settings"
2. go to "Graphics" -> "Screen Resolution", set to 96 dpi
3. go to "Applications" -> "Add application..." -> choose some .exe
4. select newly added .exe then set "Graphics" -> "Screen Resolution" to 202 dpi
5. go back to "Applications" and select "Default Settings"
6. go to "Graphics" -> "Screen Resolution" and see it shows 202 dpi instead of 96 dpi.

Information in "Applications" tab provide wine should save settings from "Graphics" and "Libraries" tabs on the per application basis.

What's more, it would allow to configure wine to open old 800x600 applications in virtual desktop with higher DPI and actually use it in 1920x1080, etc.

"Applications" tab of winecfg says this functionality has already been implemented, yet it doesn't work:

"Wine can mimic different Windows versions for each application. This tab is linked to the Libraries and Graphics tabs to allow you to change systemwide or per-application settings in those tabs as well."

Either the above information or the functionality should be changed.
