[wix-devs] Build request (after PRs)

I was going to code this up, and noticed my proposal may already be the point:

  <PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(OFFICIAL_WIX_BUILD)'=='' ">
    <AssemblyOriginatorKeyFile>$(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)publickey_wix.snk</AssemblyOriginatorKeyFile>
    <DelaySign>true</DelaySign>
    <SignAssembly>true</SignAssembly>
  </PropertyGroup>

  <PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(OFFICIAL_WIX_BUILD)'!='' ">
    <AssemblyOriginatorKeyFile>$(OFFICIAL_WIX_BUILD)</AssemblyOriginatorKeyFile>
    <DelaySign>false</DelaySign>
    <SignAssembly>true</SignAssembly>
    <BuildSandcastleDocumentation>true</BuildSandcastleDocumentation>
  </PropertyGroup>

However, $(MSBuildThisFileDirectory)publickey_wix.snk's public key token is 36e4ce08b8ecfb17 while $(OFFICIAL_WIX_BUILD) must have a public key token of ce35f76fcda82bad. Where files just not updated? The tools\OneTimeWixBuildInitialization.proj still registers 36e4ce08b8ecfb17 for verification skip.

I see the decision was made to use a different public key token for non-official builds, which does not let us test privates in production without replacing the whole of Wix - itself not a problem, but we have dozens of extensions and tools built upon wix that would then need rebuilding. As such, after the PRs for issues 4984 and 5227 are merged, could we get an official build?

Rob or Bob, would you entertain a build option (non-default) of building delay-signed with the public key for the official build for cases like this? I'd be happy to code it and test it.
