A more practical definition of a straw purchase is when a non-prohibited person makes a purchase and accepts a transfer of a firearm for a prohibited person, then illegally turns the firearm over to the prohibited person. It doesn't really matter if the seller is or isn't an FFL, or if a 4473 is or is not involved.
In the scenario above, the wife is not a prohibited person, so I don't see anything to turn the transaction into a straw purchase.
