Anastasius,

| supporting native API for kmode drivers doesnt make much sense.

kmode drivers are used for copyprotection in some games, so IMHO Wine will
support at least part of native API in near future.  Or it started doing so
already: [3]

Wine could use exception handling to catch at least some of them: [4], no?
