From a usability perspective we're not going to be doing much good unless this happens near-automatically with a typical Wine installation. That means either including them in Wine directly or including hooks to download them when needed (this could also be done in the packaging layer)
Another thing I wondered about: Can those DLLs be compiled outside the main wine tree? It'd seem nicer to me to have a project with just the DLL as opposed to a clone of the entire wine tree.
As for the server parts of xlive, I guess to get them working with a builtin DLL we'd have to build our own server infrastructure. Even then it would be an entirely different set of users and data than what you get on Windows.
