If we could get someone who's never had WoW installed on an EU computer go and sign into the US first that'd help us know more.
Not sure how useful this is, as I don't fit that exact scenario, but I'm located in the US, with a US client, and when I'm logged into into my EU WoW account -- regardless of whether I logged in through the Battle.net launcher or directly through Wow.exe -- my tickets still go to the US support team, in spite of this:

/dump GetCVar("portal") -> "EU"
/dump GetCVar("realmList") -> "eu.logon.worldofwarcraft.com"

When logging in directly through Wow.exe it seems to automatically pick US or EU depending on the value of theinstallLocale CVar in Config.wtf -- eg. "deDE" logs into EU servers, or "enUS" to log into US servers. A setting of "enGB" still logs into US servers. The value of the locale CVar doesn't seem to make any difference.
