I've been looking for a WINE front end to run some MS

When you say "front end", what are you thinking of?

I ask because my Ubuntu system works exactly as I would expect: running
the MYOB installer through Wine installed the software and added the
"Start Menu" folders and icons into the KDE "Wine" menu.
As I understand it, things like playonlinux add a user-friendliness form of GUI which makes WINE simpler to configure and install, whilst at the same time you still have access to the underlying aspects of WINE if you want.

If WINE is complete, why do further applications which sit on top of it exist? My current understanding is that I'm likening playonlinux (and such apps) is to WINE just as GKrellm is to lm_sensors.

Is this incorrect?
