1. What sort of changes did you make to the schema to support the scenario.
This may be the ideal way to go... but I'm not sure what the changes were.
<smile/>

2. I'm okay if we just need to document the "well-known identifiers" for
the wixstdba UI. Granted there isn't a lot of documentation for wixstdba
now, but that's straight forward enough to fix. This solution sounds
reasonable as well... but I don't know how to contrast it against #1
without more details on #1. <smile/>

3. The last part is Neil's call. I honestly haven't had cycles to go dig
into the differences but if he thinks it'd be good to bring into WiX proper
then a conversation like you just started here is fantastically
appropriate. <smile/>

It's been a busy but good week. I'm all smiley and stuff. <smile/>
