Summary: ProgId/@Icon behavior undocumented

Initial Comment:
WiX automatically replaces identifier used for 
ProgId/@Icon to a file reference. This isn't 
documented. Identifier doesn't need to include MSI 
syntax for file reference (WiX expects to 
see "file.dll" instead of MSI formatted "[#file.dll]". 
it will generated later format from the 
simple "file.dll").

This is unexpected, at least to me since I'm used to 
writing for MSI and use MSI documentation a lot. WiX 
schema documentation need to specify that provided 
identifier will be converted to a file reference. 
Knowing this will also help me feel more secure since 
I know this is what needs to happen in the end.
