I'd log it for 3.7. The odds of anything changing in 3.6 are very low, unless
it's critical. The odds of a 3.5 fix are near nil.

Try looking in the wix standard or mondo UI to see how that does it.
If your CA needs to be dependent on the MSI being uninstalled it needs to be
scheduled appropriately, i.e. after the REMOVE has been set correctly.

Hello everyone!
I have a question abour wixlibs in general.
If i would like to make a library with all my custom dialogs, so that i
can use them in multiple projects and multiple people,
what is the best way/design of doing this?
Up to now, i had the custom dialogs in each project, but it's not "
bove enough?
I can't see the messages, maybe it's too fast to be able to realise that
it's showing the message.

These values are set by the installer through the dialogs, and all
values are validated via custom actions (in wix 3.5)
