This sounds interesting but it's a large amount of change and the direction we should take for proper and future-proof DWM support is unclear. It doesn't seem reliable to use the host compositors features as they might not be flexible enough to match Windows requirement, and we might prefer doing the composition ourselves instead. Then you can't add new syscalls if they aren't in native (Windows) dlls, though there are ways around it, especially through the generic NtUserCallHwnd. And then looking at the unusually large amount of documentation, and the world wide trend, I probably have to ask, was this written with help from an LLM? -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/10180#note_130423
