Even without the C# motivation I think factoring out a "MSBuild" generator
infrastructure internally will be useful.  Currently we call it "VS 10"
because it happened to be the first version to use MSBuild project files.
Are you proposing to have some kind of internal object model for the MSBuild
project files to separate their construction from the actual generation?

This functionality sounds reasonable but the name of the extra/generator
pair looks funny when spelled out that way.  We should consider having
another way to specify the extra generator.
