The custom action can call an external executable (including one bundled with 
your package and not actually deployed) or call into a DLL (also, not 
necessarily deployed but present in the .msi). So, if you provide your own 
unzipping utility, you can do it. You'll only get a progress meter if you 
provide one yourself. Windows Installer will not offer any more support than to 
call it when you tell it to do so.
