The main change in 16.7 is the separation of AppContainerApplication
into WindowsStoreApp and WindowsAppContainer. There's been a bit of
interest in splitting packaging away from containment, and this is the
first step in that direction.

We're a somewhat unique application, but as WinUI3 becomes more
prevalent we will become less unique.

Some of these things, I've looked at and wondered how they ever worked.

Validation Steps Performed

Built locally and in CI. Tested the generated package with the package tester. Built on 16.6 and seen that it still seems to work.

first step in that direction.

We're a somewhat unique application, but as WinUI3 becomes more
prevalent we will become _less_ unique.
