One path to explore is patch 1.2 might have changed the patcher dramatically to
accommodate the new "RiftConnect" feature that is now built into the
patcher/launcher.  RiftConnect allows you to log in to social networking
mediums such as facebook or twitter which then allows Rift to post your new
actions in game on the social networking site.  For them to integrate this
feature into the launcher and game would any significant changes need to have
been made that aren't supported by wine yet?  Hope this information helps
someone figure out the problem.

RiftConnect is a feature Trion has been touting around for quite a while, if
they need to make a change to the patcher that compromises RiftConnect for wine
users to be able to log in my guess is they would be very unwilling.  I think
they know what the problem is even if it's not RiftConnect like I guessed but
the changes required to allow wine users to connect would compromise a feature
they find more important than allowing wine users to connect.
