If they do it correctly, then it's unobjectionable.

Of course, most places don't, and they fill too fast for just the reason you suggest, or just pure idiocy (no, a wine glass is not the same as a beer stein).

If they fill too infrequently, I'm happy to insult them by pouring myself -- it's a silent "where were you?". Kind of like grabbing silverware off of an adjacent, empty table when the waiter entirely ignores your stares and arm waves requesting some attention.
