    NAT is a desperate kludge that breaks end to end network connectivity thus preventing things like Skype, et. al from working without a centralized server.

    From your first link:

    Hi, i just tested two games with safedisc in wine-1.1.13 and none of these
    complained "put the original CD into CD-ROM!" I tested:


    * Need for Speed Underground 1 ~ safedisk 2.90.040

    * Need for Speed Underground 2 ~ safedisk 3.20.030


    So it looks like safedisc support is implemented very well.

    Must not have sabotaged it very well if it's working...

    Here is a good explanation of why the DIB engine isn't integrated yet:
