Given Microsofts push towards MSIX (which was diluted by opening up the MS Store to Win32 apps), it would be great if under the Enterprise App Management feature MS were able to repackage and offer up vendor apps in MSIX format where the vendor doesn't provide them as such.

    We have a requirement to use some of those apps on non persistent VDI's (e.g. AVD) - the format of most of the apps coming from Enterprise App Management today is as per the vendors native install. By having MS prepare them in MSIX we can then use AppAttach for dynamic delivery to AVD.
