You can always start the wineserver separately if you want to send its output somewhere else. I don't think there's a need for an elaborate mechanism for this.
I don't know wine very well, but there is also wineboot, and I've also seen services.exe being started, and Run and RunServices from the registry, so it's about more than only wineserver.
Sure, you just have to run some wine binary first, like winepath, to start all system processes with the stderr you want. That's easy to do with a simple shell alias.
The point is that getting diagnostics on stderr is a valuable tool for figuring out problems, and we cannot sacrifice that for the very uncommon case of running a script with redirected stderr. So any solution to this issue has to preserve the display of errors on stderr by default.
