Oops, I guess this suggestion was a bit too late, since I commited my patch this afternoon...
I wouldn't worry too much. I'm not sure a PIDL extension is a good idea
anyway - it's probably the Microsoft way, but this is a Wine extension API
so we don't have to follow in their footsteps exactly. It would be a
harder to use API if it was PIDL based.
Anyways: I already implemented it (as you perhaps saw) using UNIX api calls. I think I did OK, though I am not very experienced in neither C programming or win32. Mike, perhaps you could take a look at my patch?
It is not perfect yet (for example: folder icons are missing in UNIX browsing) but at least people can happily select a UNIX path now from winecfg and that was the main point :-).
