Actually it looks like it's not an MSU but it does need access to the 
orgignal media as it's not cached in the sources wim.  ( Yeah, Windows XP 
is back!! )  

BTW, found this article:

 And this little gem....

"Windows CardSpace is not available with the .NET Framework 3.5 on Windows 
8."

I don't know how many people used CardSpace but it's very odd that 3.5 is 
'installed' but that an entire subsystem is missing!

Translating... 

So depending on O/S you you need to.....

1) download and install an MSU to get it to show up as a feature and then 
call dism or similar to add the feature
or
2) just enable the feature
or
3) run the exe redist to install the product

or perhaps on a future O/S the feature won't even be available to 
download....

Does anyone besides me think this is ridiculous?

That was true in Win7 but in Win8 it requires a download from Windows 
Update.
