Hi Alexandre,
What is the thinking behind this patch? If we don't load the Windows registry on startup where should it be loaded? Will this code re-appear at any point in the future? A significant number of users still expect to be able to point Wine at an actual Windows install despite what we recommend.
There should be an "import existing Windows drive" function in winecfg, or something along those lines, that would create symlinks to the Windows install and import the registry.
