If the wrapper leaf is dry it might help a bit, but having wet down many wrappers leaves to the point where they would be unsmokeably wet in order to remove them and re-roll them onto another cigar, I can tell you that it will do nothing for under humidified filler as the large volumes of water I was using barely penetrated the wrapper, so the light amount of water being discussed here will probably not even penetrate through the wrapper leaf. If it does, there's no way it will even make it through the binder.
