I assume that PowerShell 6.x packaging is something that is coming eventually - I understand that it's a full change so I wanted to throw this out there with that feature hopefully being developed - and if not - then yes a powershell 6.0 packager first!
Anyways - Ironmansoftware has a neat feature where it is able to package the entire .net core runtime with pwsh 6.x into the exe so the code does not need to be installed on the target device. Everything is contained in the exe (granted the exe is large) and can be run on a server without the necessary items installed already. The link to the software is below if your interested in checking it out - obviously it can't be a direct copy of how he does things (unless its open sourced) due to how things are but if that can be used in any way to influence how the packaging in future versions of studio are done for PowerShell 6.x and 7.x that would be great.
