The culture sheets from AOS or SVO (can't remember which) did mention leaving the plants bare root for dormancy with occasional misting if severe shriveling occurred.

Looking for a misting system? Look no further. Automated misting systems from MistKing are used by multitude of plant enthusiasts and are perfect for Orchids. Systems feature run dry pumps, ZipDrip valve, adjustable black nozzles, per second control! Automatically mist one growing shelf or a greenhouse full of Orchids.
I also don't cut the roots off in winter, but I've also seen growers who do with great success. My Catasetinae will not get any water through the winter, however.
