Hi Rob, Would you care to elaborate on this part a bit? If you already blogged it, I apologize. I've followed the evolution of this issue for a while now and I am always curious to learn more about it. To my knowledge, I don't remember you or anyone else discussing any specific issues regarding loaded the CLR into the installer process.
I'm definitely of the opinion that these things are best avoided for now due to the lack of support for it at the WI level. On the other hand, I also believe it is just a matter of time before this needs to happen in a fully supported way. Basically, I'm trying to understand what the solution might look like in order to overcome some of the more subtle issues. What's so "neat"? :) Thanks!

There are actually "neat" problems you can introduce by loading the .NET Framework into the Windows Installer process.
