Gamecube widescreen support - goeiecool9999 - 10-26-2014

I came across this link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nintendo_GameCube_games_with_480p_and_16:9_support
which suggests that some games have widescreen support.
I decided I'd load one of these games with Dios-Mios on my softmodded wii. I enabled the widescreen option in the settings and guess what!?
Where before using the widescreen hack in dolphin things would stop rendering when outside the 4:3 frame, on the Modded wii they would still render properly in 16:9.

Would it be possible to enable the built in widescreen functionality of some games in Dolphin?

EDIT:
After some side-by-side comparison it turns out dios-mios doesn't apply the widescreen hack but just stretches the screen.
