There's not much I can say in the way of development,
but as a user, getting USB support (beyond what's
supported in the kernel) would be a HUGE leap of
improvement for Wine.  I think others have said before
that there are a lot of apps out there that will run
on Wine, but are useless because they depend on their
hardware counterpart.  (In the music world, Guitarport
comes to mind.)
