 counterquestion: how many apps in the Top-10 lists (http://appdb.winehq.org/) use it? To my knowledge the count is exactly 0 and those are the apps that wine is mostly used for. I agree that there are some apps that use the MIDI interfaces, but: nobody said that wine-alsa should be removed so people who really need midi can still use wine-alsa.
Also (a little off-toppic now ;)) aren't there software midi synthesizers that wine could link against so the audio backend doesn't need to provide MIDI playback support? or does that have a bad impact on performance (talking about "normal" use cases here, not like FruityLoops with tons of different channels)?
