Alternatives

There is Microsoft.Dism, which is not official despite the name.

As much as I would love this, I feel like Microsoft should be given ownership of that package. After that is done THEN it might be accepted into TerraFX.Interop.Windows.

Why? Because 3rd party api support for Windows components like dism could be a security risk as then that 3rd party could sneak in malicious code into it.

I'm not suggesting TerraFX take that code, but that TerraFX should have the DISM APIs. That package is simply an existing alternative
