Good luck and post back what you experienced please. It would be nice to have a post saying yes it worked for me too 
I can fix errors in the original doc and add modest extra stuff you might provide, or perhaps you can create the WIKI. Developers can then decide what could be changed to make the “official” posted process more seamless 
They are on to it, so I imagine it is a matter of priorities. It seems there is not a whole lot of love for Windoze users (not hatred, just that they can not see why Windows users would want to escape, or be able to cope with limitations. Windows has always been limiting, but it is/was the 800lb gorilla that for one reason or other “normal” people could not avoid) 
That said, many Windows users probably should not attempt to use Haiku and many Windows users are not at all computer literate and usually have “consumer” attitudes, so I can see why they would be a burden (That is lack of computer skills, not Windoze). It is whether more true end users are needed in the current plan for Haiku development and financial support. My personal IMHO is that it needs planning and streaming such users through “Non-developer oriented” streams, along with a “curated” release of Haiku that “just works” that they can access by prescribed donation (The official Curated Haiku Distro). Is that what they call a freemium product? You waste hours setting up and downloading and tweaking. I would just download a styled version that “just worked” if the cost was sensible, as hours cost money if it isn’t fun for you. Of course the “just works” would be limited to having the identified hardware (a lot of older hardware seems to and that is a niche to exploit in the first instance, just a Linux always did), not the Windows “just works” on everything. It may also require a more stable LTS version to ensure it keeps “just working”, but my experience so far is that Haiku is very robust (compared to early Windows) and keeps working even when it spits the dummy. I am thinking older people who used windows 3.0 and win 95 might “get it” in the first instance.
I can see why Linux users are the good Haiku people (they are normally better at Windoze than Windows users, though they would never admit it 
), but to me as a user, Haiku is closer to Windows and Apple in its focus, how it appears to the user and in how it superficially works. Being able to port Linux software is a huge bonus to expedite it being usable for users. Yep, Apple is now BSD based and Windoze is POSIX aware, Zorin 18 is more like Win10 than Win10 etc, but hopefully my point is clear enough.
Also, to all wonderful developers on this discussion, my above musings are not imagining any changes to current arrangements, except maybe the changes to stop end users ending up where they will annoy you and distract from the wonderful work being done. The current release arrangements could remain identical for anyone wanting to develop, hack and otherwise do what is currently done (Styled desktops and user protections just get in the way). The upside would be a money earner and real users to really test good stuff and probably a more secure future if planned and implemented right at a time right for you.
I am not expecting existing flat out developers to do this development, or it to be instant. I am sure contributors other than myself would be happy working on such a project, if it was established. Programming wizards are wasted doing Curation and Styling, and are often so close to the coalface they can miss what end users experience and struggle with.
Having Iceweasle working has changed everything for end users and how sensible it is to use Haiku! (My Iceweasle crashing whenever I try download is a killer, but I am sure that will get resolved, and otherwise it has done what I normally use so far).
No time now. I am a non-programmer, non-Haiku expert and old, so don’t expect miracles. My post has copped a few views already, so maybe if there is no negative feedback or problems posted it would be a time to make a proper WIKI.
I am doing it from Haiku on a USB wireless link that came out of the ark: SLoooooooowwwwww!
