I agree. Vote for the repo-defined autoprops feature on the SVN
roadmap/issue-tracker ;-)

You don't need VS2005 to build an MSI with WiX. The only reason there's
a .wixproj in there is because the WiX people provide a tool that allows
integration of WiX into VS2005. Rebuilding the MSI can be done with the
command line tools available from http://wix.sf.net - see our build
process in the TortoiseSVNSetup directory of the TSVN repo.
The build uses NAnt, but you should be able to use the same commands it
does, on your own unpackaged version.
See /trunk/src/TortoiseSVNSetup/setup.build lines 77 through 94.
You might find it simpler(!) to get a build environment set up, rather
than recreate the directory structure and then put files from the
extracted-with-Orca installer into the right places?
Over here, we have the same problem, but it's a small enough team that
we can just copy/paste the config file to everyone any time someone
changes it... Changes aren't that frequent nowadays (four months after
I introduced SVN+TSVN here).
