Summary: IIS CustomActions try to access IIS unnecessarily

Initial Comment:
If there is a IIsWebSite table, ConfigureIIS will always 
try to access IIS even when there are no related 
components to install.

This causes problems when creating an installer that 
supports both IIS and other web servers via conditions 
on the Web components. ConfigureIIS throws a 26001 
when IIS is not present.

This would be resolved if ConfigureIIS only accessed IIS 
when there were IIS components to install.

Today I ran into this bug too. Apparently it's also present
in WiX V2.0...

I tried to overload the "ConfigureIIs" action in the
InstallExecuteSequence section (using a custom action tag)
and defining a Condition on it, but unfortunately that
didn't work.

Is there any work being done or planned for this Bug? Are
there any workarounds?
