Is there an inherent advantage of splitting wine-net into wininet and winsock? (Apart from probably getting less .NET bugs filed in the category? ;) )
wininet and winsock are two absolutely different layers of very different functionality.
I'm not sure if diversifying more than needed will actually help. The time saved by not seeing e.g. wininet reports in the winsock category might be spent reclassifying bugs to the appropriate category. Right now users can just select "wine-net" if there's a problem with networking.
Users are not supposed to set a category the bug belongs to, this requires an investigation and knowledge of a developer. Personally I'd prefer to have "default" in the list instead of "wine-misc".
