Good point about the installer. In some cases you need a little bit extra
to be added to it which may warrant c# (such as the installer.) Although
I'll still prefer to use the DSL even if it's wrapped in C#. The reason?
The DSL scripts are generally less verbose and easier to maintain. We have
an operations/scripts folder that allows us to build out many of them and
invoke them quite easily from within a c# app.

I think at the end of the day it's preference and a little bit about the
environment you are in. Both are supported models.
