As a baby step, is there any chance of publishing an automatic

That's doable and useful, yes.
I doubt it's useful.
We don't have a massive pool of developers sitting on their hands
waiting for something else to work on. We don't have myriads of users
demanding better Windows support. Search the list, there's almost no
one asking questions about Windows and considering that it's missing a
ton of features and constantly broken, that strongly suggests that no
one is actually using it.
Windows support in QEMU is an academic exercise that's only of interest
to developers.
