I think the idea was to have a proper idl file eventually.

Amount of autogenerated code in that file is relatively small (actually
that's what I just have submitted) and it doesn't worth the trouble to
create an idl IMHO. Besides PSDK doesn't have it autogenerated either.

The point is to make it autogenerated. I know that PSDK doesn't do that 
in many places, we don't necessary have to follow.

Actually, Henri, Stefan, what was decided for DirectX headers in that 
regard? Leave as it is, switch to idls eventually, something else?

We'd like to generate them from IDL eventually, but I don't think
anyone is currently actively working on that.
