As my team is developing a number of installers for similar products, we end up reusing a lot of dialogs over and over again. The only thing that changes from one project to the next is the sequence of which dialogs we use. So far we have simply been copying a "CommonUI.wxs" file from project to project, and then making the changes in that file that are relevant to that particular installer.
 
Is there a way to build a dialog "template" library that isolates the description of the controls away from the behavior of those controls? I want to describe how the "Next" button in a dialog looks in my library, but I want to be able change what it actually points to from one project to the next. I suppose I am looking for some sort of "ControlRef" entity that can have "Publish" children entities.
 
If this is not feasible in Wix 2.0, are there any plans to add something similar to Wix 3.0?
