If the Troubleshooting sub-forum is any indication, the last major patch was the one that fixed some bugs in all versions of the game back in February of last year. There was also that one minor patch some months ago, but that was just for compatibility with a Steam client update if I recall, it didn’t affect the game otherwise.

Tl;dr: No, there wasn’t any Linux-specific updates to add windowed mode or resolution options for fullscreen mode. Assuming they are doing any more work for this port at this point, then to my knowledge nothing has been said.

Nope, no updates whatsoever. Also you saw what happened to Disgaea 5 right? If anything they'll be stuck fixing that game for a long while.

On a side note, back when Steam Play first started I heard people could request fixes to games that don't work properly on Linux (cause lord knows there are a lot). Wishful thinking, but maybe it's possible to request some kind of windowed mode fix for the Linux version? And hopefully a fix for the freeze on exit bug too, since I never had that issue on Ubuntu 16.04 back in the day, but it always happens on 18.04.

Also if you care, Disgaea 1 works on Steam Play but only in windowed mode for the time being (unless they fixed it recently). Just keep in mind D1 was never a truly good PC port in terms of optimization.

Haven't tried, but you could use wine's virtual desktop?

protontricks $APPID vd=1920x1080

the point is - game is available natively, so ability to toggle window mode should be presented out of box, without requirement to install windows version (which by the way has windowed mode, so there is no point to emulate virtual desktop)
