Second: Old version of Wine are still quite used because of package
managers just offers "stable" Wine versions over the "unstable" ones so I would 
like
to see another popup or warning in winecfg that informs user that their Wine is
getting old... so after specific number of days(from release of Wine version X)
counter gives some warnings about old Wine version.

Having a popup (or anything that requires user interaction) could get
really irritating - there are situations where people would use an
older version of wine on purpose. Like if a large organization uses it
to run one specific app, and has a specific version that works
perfectly, they might not have any reason to update.

How about a fixme when wine is run, informing them that the version
they are running was released X long ago, and that if they have any
issues they should try a newer version?

It'd be nice, too, if people then reported bugs with that on the top
of the output - it could save a lot of work chasing down already-fixed
issues.
