If we have a stable wine prefix in 1.0, I don't see what could possibly be added in 1.2 that would break that. The idea is that, even if you add a new dll that needs to be registered in, say, 1.0.5, you still don't need to remove your wine prefix or reinstall any apps.
Can I bring the discussion back to my proposal, which was to have wine-1.0 notice old, unsupported .wine directories, and do something sensible?
If we're going to force users to remake ~/.wine, it would be ideal if we only did that once. Then we could provide some sort of upgrade path if wineprefix changed again for some reason.
I'm wondering if the case-insensitive FUSE project could be finished in time - this would allow us to both get a stable wineprefix and a case-insensitive .wine folder. This would save us the hassle of having to worry about converting case-sensitive but proper-prefixed .wine folders.
