The right substitute for Vista/XP like Quick Launch shortcut is to make the 
link pinned to the taskbar (IMO).

It appears as simple as putting the shortcut in User Pinned\TaskBar subfolder 
of Quick Launch folder in Windows 7.

      <!-- Quick Launch per-user folder -->
      <Directory Id="QL1" SourceName="Application Data">
        <Directory Id="QL2" Name="Microsoft">
          <Directory Id="QL3" Name="Internet Explorer">
            <Directory Id="QL4" Name="Quick Launch" />
        <Directory Id="QL5" Name="User Pinned" />
               <Directory Id="QL6" Name="TaskBar" />
               </Directory>
              </Directory>
            </Directory>
        </Directory>

Now, I can condition the installation of the component containing the Shortcut 
element.
When OS is Windows 7 shortcut gets created in QL6 directory, otherwise in QL4.

Since this would unnecessarily create User Pinned\TaskBar folders on Vista and 
XP, does anybody know if there is a more elegant way to accomplish the same 
goal?
