Please provide MSI installers instead of / along with .exe's

As an admin deploying the .net core runtimes, it's quite a bit more effort to deploy the .exe installers than an MSI.

I've tried things like dotnetinstaller.exe /x c:\somedir without any luck. It would be great for we admins that are deploying this software to our dev teams if we had an easy way to get an MSI. Preferably, it would be the default distribution method or a direct download but a command line switch to easily extract the MSI from the EXE setup would work as well.

I can get an MSI by running the installer, reading the output logs, finding the path to it in c:\programdata\packagecache and then copying it elsewhere but, frankly, that's a giant pain.
