(In reply to Dmitry Timoshkov from comment #19)
> Bug 49448 is clearly a bug in Gecko (despite its component is set to mshtml).

Oh, right, this would be another one with current definition. But if we changed
the definition as Anastasius suggested, it would fit mshtml. One way to look at
Wine Gecko is that it's an internal (but significant) implementation detail of
mshtml and as such bugs belong there. The fact that the code that needs to be
changed is in Gecko may be expressed in a summary.

In fact, it has always been partially this way, the separated product was meant
as a tool to properly track status. For bugs that require Gecko changes, we can
resolve them in gecko product as soon as it they are fixed in Wine Gecko git
and later move resolved bug to mshtml component when Wine is upgraded to use
the fixed version of Gecko. By retiring separated product we lose the ability
to have 'fixed in Wine Gecko git, but not yet in Wine' state. The volume of
such bugs is low enough that I don't mind. 

And to be fair, it's usually more than two bugs that belong to gecko product
under current definitions. The fact that there are no more bugs is partially
because I recently released Gecko update that fixed a few of them. There is
still quite a bit of work that would be nice to have done on Gecko side. It's
just that majority of remaining mshtml work is in Wine part of mshtml using the
existing Gecko (that is no longer updated every few months with tons of new
features and problems merged from upstream).
