WandW, you can still use the same setup I did with the screenshot a few posts up, no?

It's perfectly usable and pretty much the only thing missing is the drag'n'drop feature. Otherwise it works just fine. Chucking away unnecessary stuff from FireFox makes it even more usable and when making the LSMGUI.html the default page, you only need to start FF after P8 and all is good (unless of course one uses the Wine-installed  Windows-version of FF for some other purposes as well, but I see little reason for doing so when one has the native Linux FF to use for browsing purposes).

Other  things I've noted:
-Object import now works WAY fast. With P7 importing objects was a crash-prone business, but now I'm able to import all sorts obj models very fast and with no glitches so far.
-Poser can now be run with a more varied number of Wine graphics options (like I can now make Poser window obey Gnome window manager, do not need to emulate virtual desktop anymore and such) ... allowing the actual use of Poser much more appeal and ease-of-use
-boot-up time is incredible ... 3 seconds (although from an SSD disk) would be pretty good for even native programs let alone for a program that needs Wine to run beforehand
-running Python scripts appear to be significantly faster, which for me is a big bonus
