In WiX v3.x, extensibility is opt-in on the part of the element and we kept expanding that during the v3.x lifetime. Extensibility should probably be the default. Feel free to file a bug for User.

The intent of the comment is to say extension elements cannot participate in WiX's choose-the-best-keypath logic. If an extension element sets a key path, it must do so explicitly by using the ParseElement override that returns ComponentKeypathType. -- sig://boB http://joyofsetup.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming.
