No this is a bad idea, mostly because winetest is not particularly
intended to be run by 'ordinary users', and anyone that does run
winetest should be well aware of the supposed 'dangers' of running it.
 On top of this, running winetest should not be dangerous in the first
place, and more effort should be put into fixing tests that crash the
tests or the system.
