Allow authoring/custom winmd consumption (publish the Modern compiler). #13

Currently there is no way of authoring things modularly and/or consuming non-in-box APIs. This is a bit of a blocker for me, and I otherwise love the idea.

I noticed that you plan to make the compiler consume winmd instead of IDL, but that doesnt seem critical (for most use cases) as it can be worked around using winmdidl.exe. Right?

I have heard from many folks with interest in using the compiler. I hope to have some news to share about that soon.

Please release the compiler, please, please, please... Could you also post a article about how to setup a Modern UWP app in visual studio 2015?
