Hey, wait a minute here.

First, Automating Component/@Guids requires a bullet-proof solution. The 
side-effects of violating the Component Rules are nasty on two fronts a) once 
violated there are no real good ways out (something will get messed up on the 
user's machine) and b) you don't usually realize you've violated the rules 
until it is too late (like when you need a critical security fix).  If you're 
going to suggest a solution to this problem then expect it to be "pedantically 
picked through".  From there you should adapt your solution based on feedback 
or specify how the feedback is actually addressed by the solution or note that 
your solution doesn't work and try something different.  Partial success isn't 
an option here because the "partial failures" are so horrible.


Second, please take the personal comments elsewhere.  This is where we talk 
about the WiX toolset.


Thank you.

Wow, I'm really put in my place, aren't I?
