Wineservers require separate instances for separate prefixes, and Wine
has been moving towards having apps installed into discreet prefies
these days (eg winetricks), so I no longer think this is worth doing.

Is that any different from the current situation? Surely even now when
you upgrade Wine you are still required to log out before the new
wineserver starts.

However, this makes upgrade of the Wine package itself a bit more
