I don't know. I'll put wrapper into XFree86-4 if I'm the maintainer.

But I can suppose that why wrapper is not installed by default; when
you're going to update XFree86-4-Server,
- You can't simply delete old XFree86-4-Server, since wrapper
depends on this.
- You can force to install new XFree86-4-Server. But you must
re-install wrapper also, since ${X11BASE}/bin/X is already
replaced.
It would be OK for wrapper users, but maybe it would not be OK for
other majority users who use xdm or its friends.
