Not to muddle the water too much, but it would be nice if there was an easier
way to modify the schema/vs integration in isolation. Having to roll out a vm
or uninstall the RTM to work on features can be a pain, and short of reg hacks
to the experimental vs instance I have not found a means of doing so.

I appreciate the issue of splitting the code but in my opinion it would be
worth it, as I see it it is currently too complex. I have been trying to build
WiX code for many years and it has never been possible to resubmit my changes
because the codebase is not structured in a way that makes it easy so I have to
rely on submitting bugs and hoping you guys can fix them. For example, the IIS
site code bug, the IIS log folder bug, IIS mine types – I solved these years
ago but by writing extra code rather than enhancing the core code.
Hence my confusion: Why would making it easier to build isolated parts make it
easier to contribute to WiX? Granted, it was a PITA to get a build machine for
WiX <=v3.6 but with the MSBuild work in v3.7, it's almost-but-not-quite trivial
to build. So build it once and you can hack on any part easily.
