That kind of hack has nothing to do with Wine desktop window if what it targets is just an application window.
Um. How about if the scope of the patch is repharsed as "embedding the Wine desktop inside an X11 window"?
Perhaps the most easy way for you to accomplish this would be write a replacement for Wine's explorer. Have a look at programs/explorer/desktop.c for ideas.
As detlef pointed out about the screensavers, there does seem to be a few valid cases for this. Maybe support for embedding could be put inside of the existing explorer? I'd like to add support for Windows screensavers. A while back I submitted a patch that needs some rework for xdg-screensavers but I expect users will want to also be able to use the native ones.
