Well up until Nemesis we all thought Wes Crusher was with the Traveler learning about metaphysics....suddenly he's back at Riker and Troi's wedding.
If you want a decent explaination: Sisko is the emissary, right? Well, the function of an emissary is to be an agent sent on a mission to represent or advance the interests of another. Sisko can't be a representative of the Prophets if he's chillin in the Worm Hole. Perhaps the function of Sisko being in the Celstial Temple was to meditate on what had happened over the course of the series; everything from his wifes death and his being Commander/Captian during an interstellar war to being a religious figure and reconciling that with his responsibilites both to the Bajorans and to Starfleet. After he chilled and reflected, he returned...as a matter of fact, that would be a great place to start the film. He returns to DS9 from spending a year long hiatus on Bajor with the new Kai in a religious reformation. Sisko comes back fresh and ready for adventure.
