Native initializes this variable somewhere during the log-on. And since Wine doesn't really have such a thing, it's more logical to do it during the process initialization. The only side affect is that if registry values change, new process will get new value.
If it's set during logon on Windows, it's very unlikely that an app would depend on modifying this, so you could set it in the registry once and for all.
