                OS: Linux

Hi.

I would like, here, to suggest to make WineHQ available as flatpak in Flathub.

This will be very useful since flatpak is secure & sandboxed, so user will be a
way from infect heir/his PC by a virus or spywar. If flatpak Wine run a virus,
then it will be like if Wine sandboxed by firejail run such virus.

Moreover, flatpak can minimize time & efforts in packaging because it is a
generic package working in many Linux distro regardless OS version.

Also, Wine contain huge number of 32 bit packages that are, mostly, not needed
by any other application.
