    What if Steam were to use Wine in their Linux Steam client to run nonLinux games as well as Linux games?
    Just like PlayOnLinux, but the interface is all in Steam

    PlayOnLinux is just an interface layer that utilizes Wine and its functionality.
    I'm sure Steam devs would be able to do the same thing with Steam.

    This way we could play all of our native Linux games and non-native games in the same interface.
