Could it use metadata files that are already preinstalled? Sure, but I think testing against pre-installed metadata would also mean that the tests would need to account for subtle differences between the Wine and native versions of the file (for instance, order of entries). I feel that could lead to the tests being potentially brittle. I was more thinking of something like `dlls/oleaut32/tests/test_tlb.idl`, where the IDL (and the generated typelib) is a part of the tests.
