There is no current plan to support DirectX < 8, although it should be 
easy to add DirectX < 8 support since DirectX runtime most likely 
translates DirectX <8 calls to the "generic" DirectX9 DDI calls to our 
driver. We might have a look into this later.

Unlike XPDM driver, display (d3d) wddm driver component is a user-mode 
dll, thus we can use wine right within it.

Not sure, but since we're doing nothing wrong in terms of WDDM DDI, this 
should be possible.
