OmniSharp ships a very similar MSBuild discovery mechanism to this one. However, it verifies that the VS instance that it considers has the "Microsoft.VisualStudio.Components.Roslyn.Compiler" package installed.

It would be great to provide consumers with some way to validate an instance in a similar manner. Otherwise, it's difficult to determine whether an instance is actually a reasonable choice.
