Summary: Ability to build transforms [MSTs] directly with WiX

Initial Comment:
Add features / functions to toolset &/or schema to 
facilitate building transforms directly with WiX 
rather than using existing tools such as Orca.

These features would be a great help in making 
installation packages easier for customers and field 
service staff to deploy using AD/GPOs.

I would like to be able to literally specify the 
added/deleted/modified rows of the transform ...

I need to keep very tight control of a particular 
application, but it also needs to be somewhat customizable 
and deployable through AD/GPOs.  I don't want the customer 
or our field staff to have to build the necessary 
transforms, so I'd like to be able to supply them along 
with a script to apply the desired transform.

If I can build the base package and then simply build 
transform(s) for the 'approved' variations, this would make 
life much easier.

Thanks,

-dmm

Do you mean that you would take two msi files and diff them
to create the transform or that you would want to literally
specify the added/deleted/modified rows of the transform?
