Personally I think automated application testing is the next major testing platform for wine. Test suites are the most important, but application testing can mean knowing when new software works in wine and from a user standpoint of view more "interesting" and applicable than what test suites are getting passed.
It's something we've been interested in for some time, but it's fairly hard to make it work in a reliable way.
I think it's slightly easier to do the inverse -- automate applications to make sure they don't crash in future versions.
I'm going to tackle something similar on the daily Ubuntu builds with winetricks' included selftest once Launchpad starts building them again.
