To avoid a dependency on cmake. The library user probably doesn't have
cmake installed and it would be nice if he could directly open the
.sln file and build the library.

Include the cmake installer in every library zip file? That doesn't
sound like a good idea.
Even if you do, building the library still requires additional steps
to generate the .sln and .vcproj files.
