For the most part this is all it seems to do. Differnt mertics and Windows styles. You can see examples of this by looking at the sources for the edit control. With the common diaglogs there is code that implements a Win31 theme if a you want to use it with a Win32 app. I was just going to submit a patch to rm -fr this code but if people want to use a 3.1 style on a new app I guess we should figure a way to do this in the theme support.
ALl this UI teaking is just a PITA. The Windows codebase is obviously immune to L&F changes (since each version of Windows sports another L&F), so it's not like we _need_ it for compatibility. At which point it just creates more work for us to maintain... I'd just get rid if it. We should have *one* Wine look (which does not need to match any Windows look), and have all the others be themes, if anything.
