From a pragmatic view, this patch works, and fixes a nasty issue in a popular piece of software. If there is a better fix in future, great, rework it, but for now why can't it go in the main WINE ?
For one, it's still not working for some/many people.
Other than that the wine guys obviously have procedures and standards for this sort of thing that it's not meeting yet. I assume. :)
