           Summary: automatic wine environment snapshot (time machine)
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.4
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: bluedzins at wp.pl


It would be useful if wine could make automatically snapshot of its entire
environment -- changes in registry, new programs installed. User would
configure how much snapshots he/she would like to have. 

After (example) bad install of some bad program I could revert to the situation
before installation -- I could choose reverting wine registry files, deleting
programs files. This would work even if program would not allow for full
deinstallation.

Another example of usage would be running wine with not current registry set,
but selected -- with two options:
a) as temporary set -- all changes are gone as soon as wine quits, so after
full run there are no changes of any kind in wine
b) as current set -- so the previous set is promoted and the changes are saved
to the new-current snapshot
