The wrapper acts as an interface between its caller and the wrapped code. This may be done for compatibility, e.g. if the wrapped code is in a different programming language or uses different calling conventions, for security, e.g. to prevent the calling program from executing certain functions, to provide a level of emulation, e.g. a DirectXAPI which hides the functions of the video card driver. The implication is that the wrapped code can only be accessed via the wrapper.
In packaging, a wrapper is a flat sheet made out of paper, cellophane or plastic which is folded or vacuum sealed to enclose an object and protect it from wear and tear. It can also refer to the machine that forms the package, usually a horizontal wrapper or horizontal form, fill and seal machine. This type of wrapper (machine) forms the typical candy bar package, with a seal at each end, and a long seal usually folded on the bottom of the package.
In clothing, a wrapper is a woman's at-home garment worn over nightwear or lingerie for warmth and modesty (chiefly U.K.; in the U.S. generally now called a robe or bathrobe.)

Wrappers were worn by women as an "in home" lounging type of garment, or as a functional work garment.
Fashionable wrappers were built along the same form as a fashionable dress and trimmed accordingly except that the skirt was often gored or cut "princess style" to be smooth at the waist.
It is perfectly period to pile the trim on a wrapper belonging to a wealthy character.
Wrappers insert relationship labels as nodes/tags, which is incorrect semantics and incorrect topology for graph instances that are reflecting VRML 97 scene graphs.
Wrapper tags add a significant number of wrapper classes which must be instantiated and supported.
The fact that the multi-profile X3D DTD is further modifiable to compatibly enable or ignore wrapper tags (as indicated by a simple authoring flag in scenes) is in itself further evidence that the DTD is already complete and correct without needing the addition of wrapper tags.
