I agree in principle that there should be an easier way to consume the Windows
SDK headers without having to play around with the licenses. I also agree that
that will make life lot easier for many developers. I am reaching out
internally here to see what can be done about this, but, that might take some
time. Meanwhile, is it possible to make some progress on this patch?
