Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: wine

In Ubuntu Hardy, you can now double-click on a .exe file and WINE will
try to run the selected file (if WINE is installed).

Currently, this does not happen with .msi files, even though WINE can
run .msi files.

What is missing is this line:

wine msiexec /i xyz.msi

Currently, wine trys to run the .msi file like:

wine xyz.msi

and it returns the error:

Couldn't display "xyz.msi".
There is no application installed for this file type

Can we add that line to .msi detection?
