A DX app packed nicely with winlib would be wonderful. It realistically isn't an enormous hurdle but the 'look what I did!' factor would be amazing. Now if only you could convince Blizzard for WoW =D
I was thinking of a combined project between Ogre (graphics engine) and Wine. Ogre works on Windows and Linux. It has an OpenGL and DirectX backend. Maybe a student could try to get the DirectX-backend working in Linux with Wine.
This would result in a lot of patches for Wine, and the first native Linux DirectX app of this size that I know of. Wouldn't that be cool?
