Remote Win64 registry access from Win32 managed app?

Since the following article was posted, have there been any updates to the
..NET framework (any version) to support remote access to the Win64 registry
from a managed app running on a Win32 system? We'd prefer to do this in
managed code without having to resort to PInvoke calling native code that
uses the KEY_WOW64_64KEY flag if possible.

Thanks,
-Lance

Reflector says no. This scenario is uncommon enough that I don't expect any
changes either, unless you file an explicit bug with Microsoft Support.

Jeroen & Jeffrey -
Thanks for your replies. Looks like we'll need to use the p/invoke
solution.
