As for the previous patches, I was under the impression at the time that the idea was to get rid of COM in wined3d, otherwise I would have said something earlier. For consistency it would probably be best if they were reverted.
That was my impression too, what happened to the idea of getting rid of COM? Because of course if we are keeping COM then we need to follow the rules properly.
Afaik the idea is still around, but nobody is actively working on it. Although getting rid of COM could potentially simplify wined3d a bit, for me personally it isn't much of a priority. One concern I have about getting rid of COM is that it has the potential to cause quite a few regressions, not all of which will be immediately obvious.
