But in PRACTICE, it would help a lot to hinder total system destruction once viruses start running correctly on Wine. (Especially for users like me, who always runs Wine as the root user ;-).)
you complain about security in wine and run it as root? even if i have the strongest doubts, that there is need for running wine as root - at least do a chroot or use systraceorwhattheyarenamednowadays. it makes hardly sense to suggest security measures for wine while running it as root - this is like suggesting, that vi should no longer be able to modify files, because started as root your could modify every file on the system.
