Oh last note, I did all of this with a clean ~/.wine (no winetricks needed). So
to summarize:

(Skip the first part if WoW is already installed)

-Install wine via whatever method and run winecfg so that gecko downloads, but
do not change any settings in winecfg.
-Download the installer from Battle.net Account Management
-Open the installer with wine, follow the prompts to start installing the game
-Allow the bundled Launcher to start, download an update for itself, close,
relaunch itself as the new version, and then crash.
-Go to the wine C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft directory and start
BackgroundDownloader.exe with wine

-As quickly as you can (you have a few seconds while it initializes), click
View>Preferences, then uncheck Use Peer to Peer, and check Don't throttle
background download, then click ok, then click cancel to close the downloader.
You may need to ctrl+c the downloader in the console
-Start up the Launcher again and let it complete the download.
