[driverloader] driverloader on amd64

There is no much point to use 32-bit distribution on 64-bit architecture.
So I wonder if

1) driverloader can serve as 64-bit wrapper for 32-bit windows drivers running them under Linux 64-bit kernel (assuming IA32 support turned on)?

2) driverloader can run 64-bit windows drivers under Linux 64-bit kernel?

I understand that currently the answer to both questions is No.
But what is about future version?

Thanks,
Max
