Q: 

Visual studio 2010 Setup and Deployment Projects?

For those of you who are testing VS 2010 (or stay up-to-date with the blogs).. are there new features for building MSI's in VS 2010?

+2  A: 

Biggest one is UI customization support, IMHO

What's New in Deployment

+2  A: 

The customized UI support is for ClickOnce projects not MSI projects. The only update to VDPROJ is to support .NET 4.0 detection logic.

VDRPOJ is a pile of fertilizer and I wouldn't reccomend anyone use it anyways. It's barely on life support until VS can switch officially over to WiX.
