ad registry mod: I remember some Wine version on customer's OS/X even deleted the symlinks, so this did not work (or the symlinks somehow disappeared each time I started Wine).
Yes, the symlinks are managed automatically now, that's why you have to set the registry entries instead.
ad wine_dlopen: I know about calling convention differences, different structures/arguments/etc, and other caveats as well. Despite of this I still think such feature would be very useful.
Well, you are pretty much the only one who's asked for it in 20 years, so it's not clear that it would be all that useful. So far all potential use cases seem to have better alternatives.
