You should have a look at https://testbot.winehq.org/ which let you 
submit a patch on several (VMware'd) Windows machines.
But I doubt there is any input devices in these virtual machines. Can 
someone confirm/infirm this ?

You can also ask people here (or on IRC) to test your patches if they 
have the hardware.
If you read wine-devel archives, you'll find that, from time to time, 
some people ask to test a patch for a new Gecko release or to run some 
tests on (mutli-channel) soundcards in order to better understand how it 
works.

And so do I and probably most of people here.
You know, tests are run every (working) day on several machines : keep 
an eye on the results and provide meaningful error messages to help you 
fix your code. (see http://test.winehq.org/data/)
Of course, if your code depends on OS-specific features, you can wrap 
your code with defines.
And when you'll submit something, you're code will be reviewed so you'll 
got some feedback.
