Apple did! The Game Porting Toolkit does (I think) what you're talking about and what Steam did for Linux.

Without even opening the link "porting toolkit" seems like something I need to put effort into.

Proton + Steam is pretty much just clicking "Allow Linux" on a dashboard somewhere and then it'll just work.
