If it's not needed for most games, then it's better to leave it as an optional fix.

In this wine version appears some things like wine icon in wine start button on desktop mode and more work in buffer and DX11 for courtesy jozef kucia and others

No, it’s not.
No, really, it is. The issue only happens with the NVIDIA driver and only in very few games. Leaving it on also has a negative impact on the framerate of all other games and Direct3D programs that don't have the issue, so it should definitely not be on by default. If you want more information about it, the thread concerning the issue has the full story, including tests :)

EDIT: Also, if anyone here is using Vineyard, I just added support for the flag (CSMT and DXVA2-VAAPI support were also recently added), so, yeah, that's easier now :)
