If you're using WiX v2's WixUI library, you have to change the property 
values to change destination dialogs at runtime. In WixUI v3, you could 
use "floating" Publish elements to publish new control events with 
conditions based on feature state. Still not terribly easy or fun but no 
custom actions are required. Derek and I talked about this problem 
several times but we couldn't figure out a way to make it easier than 
that. At some point, it becomes easier to use an external UI handler to 
do complicated UI, compared to MSI's UI support.
