No , FIXMEs shouldn't be reported.

Read the API description, ask specific question, send patches for inclusion
to wine-patches or put them to discussion on wine-devel. Don't get
frustrated if nobody reacts, try again.

It is a good habit and helps to understand the problem when you write test
cases for our test suite, test them against wine and windows and submitt
them too.
