In WiX 3.0 code was added (defect 2219545) to allow the WebSite/@SiteId 
attribute to be set to "*" to indicate that it should set the site id to the 
hash of the site name (WebSite/@Description), this code is still present in WiX 
3.5 for IIS6 but not IIS7. This now means that when sites are installed in a 
web farm the site id is dependent on the install order and therefore causes 
problems with ASP.NET applications that use session state as the ASP.NET 
session state database is indexed by the site id.

Was there are reason for not including this code in the IIS7 implementation?
