No. But you can do an "install/fast" equivalent within Visual Studio GUI by
right-clicking on the INSTALL project and choosing "Project Only > Build
Only INSTALL" -- this will execute the install script straight away without
building the things it depends on first...

I am not sure about this one. I've not used OPTIONAL myself before... It
does look like OPTIONAL should probably be in the install script in the
"TYPE SHARED_LIBRARY FILES "path/my_target.dll")" chunk.

Perhaps you could file a bug report at http://www.cmake.org/Bug and then
attach a simple project that reproduces the issue...? Bugs filed in the
database always get looked at eventually. Sometimes the mailing list traffic
gets heavy and things like this are more easily lost than they are in the
bug database...
