I would assert that functionality is worth a minor inconvenience to debugging workflows, yes. Especially for something as rare as using a debugger. For that matter I've always had to use follow-fork every time I run a debugger anyway.
Fwiw I use debuggers a lot and it's been extremely useful for finding bugs.
I've also been putting a lot of effort on trying to improve the experience of using Gdb with Wine, so IMO it would be better if we could do this differently.
Using follow-fork-mode is especially annoying as there's plenty of processes spawned on startup, and whatever start.exe does, the main process is *not* going to be just one fork ahead.
