What about using 'two' wixout files - one for the cab and one for the xml?
In other words, an ancillary file that stores the cab.

Re: [WiX-users] wixout file format
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.
