Thanks!

point to merge with Debian to drop Ubuntu's wine1.x source packages and
use Debian's wine source package as is or as much as is as possible?

I think that might be the better option at this point (or for 16.10?) and I did try my hand at it.    There are two bugs about moving to 1.8:
1558480  - Just go to debian packaging, see Marc's comment #2 for why it's difficult - upgrades.   It's a cross-architecture upgrade story which I wasn't able to figure out.  

1556344 - Add wine1.8 with Ubuntu packaging.

  It's a general goal to drop dependencies on gstreamer0.10 and Wine

  is useful.  See https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31836
