Sorry, I guess the reasons aren't obvious to me. What's wrong with it? Certainly using mini shell scripts like that seems to be more of a hack than special casing some Wine code.
Just the opposite, a wrapper script is much cleaner than adding some special handling deep in the Wine core. That way you can define the policy you want (switching on a key press, after a delay, after a certain function is called, etc.) instead of having the Wine core impose its own.
