I appreciate the issue of splitting the code but in my opinion it would be worth it, as I see it it is currently too complex. I have been trying to build WiX code for many years and it has never been possible to resubmit my changes because the codebase is not structured in a way that makes it easy so I have to rely on submitting bugs and hoping you guys can fix them. For example, the IIS site code bug, the IIS log folder bug, IIS mine types -- I solved these years ago but by writing extra code rather than enhancing the core code.Hence my confusion: Why would making it easier to build isolated parts make it easier to contribute to WiX? Granted, it was a PITA to get a build machine for WiX <=v3.6 but with the MSBuild work in v3.7, it's almost-but-not-quite trivial to build. So build it once and you can hack on any part easily.
