Enable RSAT Features with PowerShell and Dism

Checking boxes gets old quickly, and I’ve installed and checked those little boxes for the Remote Server Administration Tools (RSAT) on Windows 7 enough times for it to be annoying. I just wanted a static script with the names of the features to enable, but Xenophane’s Blog has some examples of extracting the output of the /Get-Features switch to dynamically generate the command to enable everything in RSAT.
