I think it's consistent with the rest of Wine as it is now. We
generally don't load dependencies dynamically if the dll would be
completely useless without them (e.g. openal32, mscms, winex11, every
sound driver). Openal at least is truly optional, in that Wine should
be just as compatible without it (it's not part of Windows, so all
Windows apps that need it should ship with a usable native version).
