Wheatpaste is just starches. It just seems logical that it would still be water soluble, is all. I personally have never tried to remove wheatpaste off of anything and dried starches can be a pain to deal with. (Clothes are an exception: you just throw the thing in the wash and be done with it.)

(Of all things I have typed on the internets, I never would have guessed a preliminary analysis on wheatpaste would be one of them. Lulz.)

Superglue is way worse than wheatpaste, if wheatpaste is hard to remove, superglue is impossible without causing extensive surface damage, especially on plastic surfaces.

Yeah, isopropyl or acetone may not play nice with plastics. Not only does it take time to dissolve superglue with IPA or acetone, you risk melting the plastic. (Acetone and ABS plastic are especially incompatible. Just the vapor will turn ABS into goo.)
