Thanks.

I understand the "SignMsi" element, but the "SignCabs" description is not
what I'd expect.  It reads like it is used to sign "external" CAB files,
not for signing our application's binaries stored within the msi.

Though, I guess I could change the suggested command-line (see below) to
sign the binaries rather than the CAB files, right?  I assume this target
would be executed prior to building the msi.

 <Target Name="SignCabs">
    <Exec Command="Signtool.exe sign /a &quot;%(SignCabs.FullPath)&quot;" />
  </Target>
