If I'm reading this correctly, this effectively ignores DisabledExtensions for anything newer than GL 3.0. (And at least as far as wglGetProcAddress() is concerned it affects both compatibility and core contexts.)
Hmm, it should still work via filter_extensions().
wglGetProcAddress() calls is_extension_supported(), which calls has_extension(NULL, ...) if major >= 3, so it doesn't go through filter_extensions().
Most applications probably won't care, but in principle applications can use wglGetProcAddress() to check if a function is supported. (As opposed to glXGetProcAddress() that's allowed to return non-NULL for unsupported functions.)
As an aside, note that winex11.drv also uses "glGetString(GL_EXTENSIONS);" in X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo().
That should be fine, that's always a compatibility context created with glXCreateContext().
Right, although in a way that's worse; extensions supported in compatibility contexts aren't necessarily also supported in core contexts. The only reason it will probably work in practice is because of the details of the extensions being checked against that list.
