Thanks Steve for the feedback.

> If it's a warning, it could also be that the warning is being triggered somewhere else first. Since tests run in a random order, you'll want to look for how reliable the failure is.

It is a warning, but it seems unlikely that any other code is calling it, given that the supporting codepath was not present until the same PR.

> The appx layout is also the only one in CI that actually uses an installed layout - all the rest run tests from the source tree. So it could be related to that.

If someone could help by producing a docker image that can build the appx layout and run the tests, that would help me as I don't have a lot of proficiency with installing build tools on Windows through the CLI... and the experience I do have has been fraught with challenges.
