Summary: Unsupported Service Types

Initial Comment:
The Windows Installer does not currently support kernelDriver or systemDriver, 
but they do work, when using these type with candle (and probably light) it 
produces this error:
error CNDL0073 : The ServiceInstall/@Type attribute's value, 'kernelDriver, is 
not supported by the Windows Installer.

A warning would be nice, but an error isn't. 

Unsupported features of the installer should be unsupported features of Wix.

Rob,

that isn't what I ment, it actually works with the windows installer, so
why not make it work with wix? It's only a different column value. I think
it should be added, but not supported. (So just warn the users it's an
unsuported feature and set the KernelDriver attribute, instead of
generating an error and don't set it.)

I agree, unsupported features of the Windows Installer should not be
supported by Wix.  Thus the error makes sense.
