I am very interested in this project, and given our management shake-up, I'm going to seek permission to contribute. Don't know how it will turn out, but the faces are different, and if I don't ask, the answer is always "no."

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.
