If you're looking to /reduce/ the hair-pulling-out factor, probably not.

There's also no guarantee that MSIE/WINE will render pages the same as 
MSIE/WinXP or MSIE/Win9x, as WINE provides its own font and graphics 
services in place of the Windows ones. So it'd only be a solid test of 
MSIE/WINE ... which is probably not a very big user base :-P
