Description

I am aware that this may go beyond the MSIXCore feature set, yet the system provided and unified app auto-updates feature is perhaps what drives many package developers towards MSIX most.

Research direction

The issue proposes adding app installer support to MSIXCore but names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing the MSIXCore feature set and repository scope, then define the installer requirements and affected components. Done would require an agreed design and implementation scope for unified app auto-updates.
