Description
It is as it says, prefer to play a lot of games (especially older pre-DX9 games) in 4:3 windowed mode. I know you can change the title of the window manually.
It's just a minor request and definitely not a deal-breaker, but it would be a nice little touch of things.

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating Proton/Wine handling for the windowed Wine Desktop title, then determine where the displayed name is set. Done means the window shows the game's AppID or AppName instead of "default" in this mode.
