Luckily, work is already underway for a driver which would allow Wine to work directly with Wayland, without the need for XWayland. Blog post [here](https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/news-and-events/wayland-on-wine-an-exciting-first-update.html). Question is, how long will it take them to work all the issues out. I foresee XWayland being a crutch for a very long time.
