Also, the .wixout format is not documented.  We don't expect people to
really care about it or expect it to be one thing or another over time.

And it would be much bigger and slower to load, neither of which are
desirable (especially if your project is as large as Office).

Wouldn't it be possible to fix this such that it is a proper XML file?
The cab could be embedded in the XML (eg. base64) and the entire thing
would be much better, though not exactly perfect. At least it would work
with XML parsers.
