Makes sense to get this to work, at least as an option.
Makes sense. As a data point, it looks like this feature is in all
supported releases of Windows. It arrived in 1803, already EOL'd, and
IIUC even a Windows Server 2016 "LTSC" system that's been disconnected
from the internet and refusing all updates reaches "mainstream EOL"
next month.
I believe the "18" in "1803" refers to 2018. We have Windows buildfarm
members that mention 2016 and 2017 in their title. Would those be in
trouble?
