The launcher does run normally if I wait for it to load. The reason why this matters is because you can click it accidentally, or may wish to move it to somewhere other than the exact center of your screen. I am also in the habit of moving around windows that seem to be taking too long to load because certain programs, when run through WINE, display graphical issues until moved or resized. FFXIV is not one of these programs, but the habit is hard to shake, leading to sometimes needing to quit the launcher.
