Update (sorry for the fast turnaround, but I forgot to do this ...) I just read 
in the book by Nick Ramirez that -sval is the same as turning off all ICE 
stuff. This was *not* clear from the supplied documentation, at least in Wix 
3.5 ... (i.e., "validation" does not sound necessarily the same as "all 
internal consistency evaluators" etc.). Nevertheless, in a package that doesn't 
change in details much (and seems to work as designed) is turning off ICE risky?

Subject: light -sval

One of my family of install packages uses Windows Installer 4 to get access to 
the restart manager. Unfortunately this has the consequences that its MSIs 
cannot be validated at creation time on a vanilla Windows Server 2003 machine.

What are the potential risks of using -sval to turn off validation?
