Since we can include firmware for different devices into Fedora, can we include win32-binaries for use together with Wine, DOS executables for dosbox, jars for use with Java stacks , etc (if will be confirmed that they works).
These are executed on the main CPU so the answer is no

There is no such prohibition. OTOH we've got policy for emulators from that we may understand that ROMs may be included (policy prohibits only inclusion of COPYRIGHTED blobs fr emulators).

There is, but it's indirectly by the definition of firmware, as we afaics only call something firmware which is executed in the hardware and not on the host CPU (just like the BIOS). That's why madwifi's HAL is no firmware and the current madwifi thus not in Fedora.
