No problem with a wrapper, but the nice thing about the -m form is that it's portable. On Unix, shell script wrappers are pretty portable (no idea if C-shell users would agree...) On Windows, though, there are all sorts of problems. BAT files don't nest, so you end up having to use atrocities like "CALL virtualenv" within a batch file. Powershell users prefer .ps1 files. The only common form is an EXE, but nobody really likes having to use a compiled form every time.
