I agree with a lot of good reasons primarily around security but I have
to say I don't agree with this.
Wine is far faster that Virtualbox or rebooting.
Take adding bookmarks to pdfs which I sorted out yesterday. Install
foxit on windows copy the directory to wine (install failed for me) and
bang, sorted.
Perhaps the latest poppler and okular can do bookmarks properly now?
but there are other commercial apps required thankfully falling one by
one.
