You are right, the use case is broader than virtualenv.

> The only reason for this split is to allow other programs use dynamic linking
For me the main reason is to support extension modules. On Windows, a DLL (or a .pyd) cannot resolve symbols in the main .exe program.

Do you have more specifications about such a launcher? How would it find the .dll?
