Phoronix: Wine-Staging 1.7.49 Makes Wine Apps Look Like GTK3 Programs

Building off Friday's release of Wine 1.7.49 is a new Wine-Staging update and it comes with an interesting experimental program to better integrate Wine apps with the GTK3 Linux desktop...

why wine staging, why!. not exist another theme render? :S this pulled a tons of dependencies!

Awesome! It's really helpful to better integrate with that missing app that you still have to use from windows.

Unless the Linux world is not gnome-centric ... wait, it isn't!

staging comes in the form of separate patches, simply disable ones responsible for gtk3 before build and you are done, no need to panic.

Maybe someone can do a KDE take on this. I hope it better deals with tray icons and them not disappearing or failing to let the window return to desktop.

On KDE seems to be disabled, still its nice to see than Linux is becoming better to run windows software (supposing that's a good thing). So I hope QT integration will be the next.

I am actually surprised nobody thought about this before. Maybe there were some serious issues against doing it (aforementioned performance) ?
