As a Win developer, I want to make a suggestion (sorry if it was already
discussed - or if similar mechanism already exists):
What if some simple way will be provided for Win developers to say which
options they prefer for WINE to use for their application? While it may
seem to somewhat contradict to the 'big bright future' of the WINE (with
all the apps running flawlessly under WINE), it would hopefully allow
for immediate increase of out-of-the-box supported applications.
For example, it could be a resource string of special format (for
example, "__WINE_CONFIG_HINT: "Managed" = "N""), and multiple hints
should be allowed. This hint should override system-wide settings but in
turn should be overridden by per-app settings in wine config file/registry.
This will just allow developers to hide bugs in wine and slow development even further, I thing it's
a bad idea.
