I think it's kind of tricky to judge the scope here. I think the consensus 
from WineConf was to look if the project was doable first, and if we'd like 
to have that feature second.

This one seems like lots of work, but I think it's possible to cherry-pick a 
set of things that are doable. Partly depends on the previous item, though.
