It's not biting the hand that feed us. We don't want Crossover AppDB
data in Wine's AppDB, just like Crossover doesn't want Wine's AppDB
data in their AppDB.

AppDB is user-maintained. If the users said this, I personally
wouldn't mind as long as the rest of their test data was related to
Wine. I will not put words in the users' mouths.

I recently removed a few test data submissions where ies4linux and
PlayOnLinux were used. Since these are not supported by WineHQ in
other places (forums and IRC), I feel perfectly justified in doing
that.
