How can you make several TeamBuild 2015 configuration options not applicable to all steps?

Question

I like the concept of MultiConfiguration through the Options tab in TFS 2015 TeamBuild. But I do not want the resulting "matrix assembly" to be applied to every step of the assembly definition.

Usually we want to run custom post VS SLN steps only onceafter each configuration has been compiled. And we want the artifacts created from these steps to be "reset" only onceafter completing the steps after compilation.

Right now, using this MultiConfiguration function, each repeat of each step of the build recipe is repeated for each combination (typically BuildPlatform and BuildConfiguration).

Is there a way to make MultiConfiguration applicable only to Visual Studio Build steps? I think that as a backup we can simply not use MultiConfiguration and add a Visual Studio build step for each combination of BuildPlatform and BuildConfiguration. However, lame.

Good, as you can see the description of the extension in the "Multiconfiguration" section: build several configurations using the same steps .
