I (and a bunch of people over here) would like to add more functionality
to SqlScript, basically one of the following:

a) Automatically translating MSI properties within SqlScripts, the same way
SqlString works

or

b) Create a Replace tag to explicitly tell how to do replaces within
SqlScripts, kind of
<sql:SqlScript Id="" bla bla bla>
  <sql:Replace Find="%MyServerName%" ReplaceWith="[SERVERNAME]" />
  <sql:Replace Find="$APrettyVariable$" ReplaceWith="[SOME_VARIABLE]" />
</sql:SqlScript>
I prefer (b), and eventually I will write the code for it, but if I get
cooperation for the owner of the extension, more people will be benefited.

By the way, InstallShield works like (b)

Rgrds,

Eitan
