Summary: New tool / feature to process .SLN files

Initial Comment:
A utility which would read an existing Visual Studio 
solution file [*.sln] and create from it a skeleton .wxs file 
to be used as the basis for building an installer for that 
solution.

This would be an excellent aid for converting existing 
software projects in to WiX projects ...

Hmmmmmmmmm ...

I think I was thinking more about capturing the built 
binaries ... but also grabbing [at least a list of] 
dependencies so that the setup requirements would be closer 
to 'self-documenting' ...

As I think about it more, it is a tallow-like feature ... 
with the added function of being able to semi-automagically 
update the installation package as the application changes.

Sounds like a great tallow feature.  I need some help
understanding what the goal here is though: do you want to
create a setup of the source files referenced by the .sln
file or are you more interested in capturing the built
binary files?
