(Rob: You had a name for the ICE replacement project -- what was it? As 
you know, naming a project is the most important part...)

As I write up the WIP, I thought I'd get a head start on any discussion.

I want to kick off the project with a proof of concept. Basically, I'd 
set up a new repo and implement a handful of ICEs. I want to implement 
compile-, link-, and bind-time checks. Then we can figure out how to 
bring it into v4. The separate repo allows work to happen regardless of 
the state of the destination repo. It also will require that the 
validator extension be built without any dependencies on internal WiX 
build goo. That means it should be trivial to build (install WiX, open 
.sln in VS201x) and will show any weaknesses of building extensions 
outside the WiX repos.

Questions/comments/concerns?
