We (Etersoft) are realized USB support in wine via libusb and do many fixes in 
ntoskrnl.exe to load and run proprietary drivers for protection keys (like 
HASP).
AS I know, this improvements is not acceptable by Alexandre.
If anyone is interested to consult us to do our code more acceptable, you are
