What would be a better solution?

Windows is sometimes treated as a second class citizen development 
platform, probably due to developer preference (my own included). There 
are a lot of people who either prefer Windows or have no choice whether 
to use it, though. If we can serve them better, with more timely 
releases that deviate less from our other code, that's a huge win, and 
reason enough to do this in itself, IMHO.
