It seems to me another benefit of going the emulation route is easy 16-bit support in x64 version of ReactOS - something MS isn't offering.
Right now dosbox is far enough along that it can run Win3.1. It would be cool if we could rip out the dosbox gui and write a wrapper or something that made dosbox send and recive input via cmd.exe. That still does not solve the Win16 problem though. Building the Wine Win16 stuff as Win32 dlls, porting winedos.dll and developing a thunking system like they have is a option for that.
