Glorious Eggroll is also behind a database called ULWGL that will get all the game launchers that use his proton (heroic, lutris, bottles...) to use the same game specific patches because at the moment they maintain them independently for the most part. The project seems to be taking off pretty quickly because it's already formed an organization around it and recentered itself to even be Proton-GE independent if needed.
