I'm talking about bundling Wine with the Windows app in a single package.
If the user wants to use another wine version, he should have the choice to not
download or install the version from the app vendor.
If multiple apps are compatible with the same wine version, it should be
downloaded and installed only once.
Bundling Wine with the app goes against modularity, reusability, bandwidth and
disk space usage.
