[Bug 15199] automatic wine environment snapshot (time machine)

Vitaliy,

By your comment I guess there is misunderstanding -- I am aware that Wine is
not Windows, it is not VM.

I am not asking about ability to make memory dump of running Wine at all! By
snapshot I mean copying all files needed to re/create Wine environment.

"Of course" when _none_ wine instance is running.

And about WINEPREFIX, simple hint, and it does not work from the start -- there
is not such setenv in my system (wine works fine).

The problem is not that I don't know how to use tar, gzip, svn, or whatever,
no. There is always problem in touching/changing/editing files from outside.
Registry files are not raw text files, so the problem arises right from the
start with diff and patch. And so on...
