That describes the process quite well. In particular, crossqa.d.n links
to existing bug reports to avoid duplication of work. A major lack
(beyond people doing the work) is domain-specific knowledge of the
various archive sections. So once you locate a monster, don't stop
there, but contact debian-cross@lists.debian.org or
#debian-bootstrap@oftc and let us combine your domain-specific knowledge
with some cross compilation experience to create an original solution.
So yeah, start with those packages that you know well.
Check http://crossqa.debian.net/src/<sourcepackagename> for your pet
packages or follow the "cross" link in the right sidebar at
tracker.d.o. Also (thanks to IOhannes zmölnig) enable cross building in
your salsa-ci pipeline.
In any case though, don't let wine wait for cross building to become a
thing.
