VSTs in linux (WSL)?

[giantpterodactyl]

Trying to load the free Valhalla plugins (Windows VSTs) causes the Linux Element plugin scan to crash. I've tried placing the Valhalla .dll files in multiple paths and tried running Element with sudo but the scan always crashes in Win10 WSL2/Ubuntu 20.04.02 LTS while working fine in the Windows version of Element. Should I not expect Element (Linux) to load any Windows or Mac VST's from within Linux? Is the Linux version of Element only expected to run Linux native plugins? Should any VST work if this were in a native Linux installation (non-WSL) or do Windows plugins always have to be run from within a Windows host? It sure would be nice to have a cross platform VST/VST3 host using virtualization magic to run any VST/VST3 for any platform on any OS, (specifically Linux).
