Isira, has explained the functionality of this idl and its related dll. Its needed for bug# 41369. I am trying to get the patch in staging to upstream, by checking the Windows 7 sdk. I am also splitting and modifying the patches in staging appropriately.
Thanks, Vijay

It seems to be the Windows Animation Manager that was introduced with Windows 7 and the Windows Vista Platform Update: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/uianimation/-main-portal
According to that page, its purpose is to simplify the process of adding animation to an application UI.

This bug says Paint.NET installer is using that, but never mentions if it's actually needed.
Original report simply talks about missing functionality. That's why I asked, do those stubs actually help anything?
Thanks, Vijay

The installer bails out, see https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=51160 (and bugreport https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38319 that is resolved as duplicate of #41369)
For Paint.net 4.0 (i.r.c) the stub dll was enough to let the installer succeed; from Paint.net 4.1 on it let`s the installer proceed far enough to run into nice d2d bugs ;)

Thank you. Next d2d issue is bug 45049 or something else?

Bug 45049 is about the program itsself. The installer suffers from other bugs; In fact every new version seems to expose yet another d2d insufficiency. I`ll open a bugreport for the very first 4.1 series installer.
