I recommend testing on a VM where you can use snapshots and easily copy
files to.  You can run the same sn.exe commands on the VM that
the OneTimeWixBuildInitialization.proj does to get around the strong naming
issues.

An "official" build doesn't have to be Release, you can build an "official"
debug build.

For strong naming and BootstrapperCore.dll, you might be interested in this
