I don't think we want to clutter up the source code with this kind of
thing. We already have a status page on winehq.com, and while the
percentages are still very approximative, at least they have some
meaning. Doing statistics on the number of implemented/unimplemented
functions is useless, it doesn't give any information about how well
the dll will behave in real use. But if you really want to do that it
should be easy to maintain a list of functions in a separate file; or
you can simply grep for 'stub' in the spec files.
