That exact thing lives in the kernel.
You can send messages to any window. But kernel parses hardware messages (mouse, keyboard) and generates messages to give to window that's currently under pointer/has keyboard focus. As well as generating event sequences for window state changes. Some of it in user32 some in kernel.
How exactly that part is done - you won't find in Wine. Wine does it in a totally different way. Hence all the problems in that area.
