Agreed, re-implementing DXVK would be a LOT of duplicated effort.  DXVK is
funded by Valve, and is almost perfect as a translation layer.  How hard would
it be to ship DXVK with Wine and auto-switch which implementation is used based
on the devices's capabilities?  I'd hate to see many man hours going toward
re-implementing the wheel when they could be used elsewhere...

AFAIK there are no legal/license compatibility reasons why DXVK couldn't be
shipped with Wine.
