Does anyone have any better ideas on what the "Right Way" to tackle this item is? I am sure that adding external functions that do not exist in native versions is *not* the way.
This was Alexandre's idea. Alexandre, a more detailed brain dump on the configuration stuff would be useful. For example:
C.1 Merge configuration into the registry
Any gochas? What would it take?
C.5 Make Wine's DLLs register themselves to avoid manual merging of the winedefault.reg
How should this be implemented? See Jeff's questions.
C.6 Write wine.inf script to setup a new Wine installation
Do we have the code that executes .inf scripts? Is this one just a matter of writing the scripts?

For those interested, here are a couple of links relating to the INF file format (1), and the SetupAPI (2). I don't know how complete our implementation is, but it can be found under wine/dlls/setupapi.
