I can see the usefulness of wine, in order to use the occasional windows 
program, and when a program under wine works it feels very natural. This 
however is moving things right into the kernel, including the dreaded 
registry. I think this is too close to home, and is not a good idea for 
the health of a linux system.  Under Wine, things are per  user, and 
nicely compartmentalized.
