Hmm that's pretty strange. Sounds like a bug unless the Wine window is
really hinted as a dialog. Running matchbox with debug enabled might
give you more info about what is going on.

I don't think this is a configuration problem (there is little to
configure in matchbox, mostly just the theme which is in
sugar-artwork).

Can you run xprop, click on the window and provide the output?

Thanks,
