Not sure if this is something you're interested in doing, but figured I'd ask anyway - would it be feasible to merge the new GDI/OpenGL supporting Wine Wayland driver with this? RFC at wine-devel mailing list The code at gitlab

I've been curious as well, nothing is impossible I guess, but how feasible it is and how much work would it take merging it?

Since Collabora's winewayland is funded by Valve or RedHat, Codeweavers will eventually accept it to mainline Wine. So there is no point in spending effort of merging GDI/OpenGL support.

Additionally, there is already some GDI support in wine-wayland which is good enough for popups and simple launchers/apps.

For the opengl support, most cards already support Vulkan, so there is no point in OpenGL support besides few launchers that seem to require it - but these have other issues.
