If we want to do that, it's worth deciding now, as it affects how winecfg operates. At the moment changes to the GUI are moved to and fro the structure in bulk, then the struct is saved to the registry, again in bulk. That lets us do "OK/Cancel". If we want instant apply, that complicates things.
It should definitely be possible to apply a subset of changes; we don't want to rewrite the full config everytime a change is made. If I toggle the "managed" flag for instance I expect that specific key to be written to the registry, nothing else. Yes, it will complicate the implementation a bit...
