An NT ACL thwacking utility might be handy.  Our app needs write
permission for ASPNET on a couple of directories.  xcacls doesn't always
cut it.

If someone implements your IIS idea NAnt might be a good candidate for
the grunt work in our (NSIS-based) installer.  Who says that NAnt only
runs on the build server.  :)
