Well, it's only preparative work. I'll try to help you doing this "boring" 
part :)

I have tested it in a separate code. But i thought that including it directly 
into wined3d instead of d3d8 would be better.

As you want, i'll continue playing with my modified d3d8/d3d9
waiting you to complete wined3d migration :)
Alexandre, i can forget my patch
