Any breakages of the World of Warcraft launcher on Windows are almost certainly due to administrators breaking their system, World of Warcraft requiring all users on a system be given full access to its directory, and/or administrators not fixing the permissions on the World of Warcraft directory.
Considering most of us here have stock installs, and wouldn't even know where to begin to start sludging up registry permissions or faking NTFS ACLs, fake user groups, etc, on our installation locations, it might be taken as a hostile response (or worse, a valid response and promptly closed) that end-users are somehow at fault for this problem. It is irresponsible to try to blame this on users as the administrators of their own system or package maintainers for properly compiling wine.
