Comment:

 We already are using a custom action to do this writing, it just means we
 have to strip the trailing slash from the Apache dir, and adjust the
 httpd.conf template to match.

 Replying to [comment:1 jbirch]:
 > What are the effects of this setting having a trailing slash?

 > One of the problems with the installer technology is that the properties
 are set with trailing slashes and there is no way (short of a custom
 action) to do string manipulation on the properties.

 configurable, and basing the Apache config off of MAPGUIDEROOTLOCATION.
 I'm actually in favour of reducing the number of public properties in the
 installer, so this might not be a bad approach.
