Bug Description

Bash autocompletion works with .exe, etc. but it should also work with .msi (Microsoft Installer packages).

Not sure which package provides this, or even if this comes from upstream (I guess it doesn't). I also cannot find the config files that contain the autocompletion for Wine. If I knew where it was I could test this myself.

Wine installs .msi packages as "wine msiexec /i package.msi"

The above in /etc/bash_completion does the job.

I've created this patch to go upstream but I haven't got the first idea how to submit it. The Debian documentation isn't exactly forthcoming!
