And I guess you still didn't find the time to re-implement that :-)

I always thought that it was silly that MSI SQL didn't have a
functioning ORDER BY statement and that many tables where order would be
useful don't have ORDER columns to allow useful traversing of the record
sets.
I once wrote a very sweet custom LaunchConditions pattern. I write
about it a bit here for anyone interested in extending LaunchConditions
to actually be useful.

They suggest to author a CustomAction type 19, in wix that would
be a custom action with the Error attribute set, but I have never done
that.

Subject: [WiX-users] Execution order of launch condiitions
In our product installs we have several launch conditions set,
but the order is not from the top down. Is there any way in WiX to set
the order of execution?
For example, we would like them to check them machine
architecture and privileged settings before checking for other support
packages to be preinstalled.
Can WiX set the order or are we at the mercy of Windows
installer to do this? Seems kind of basic to be able to do this.
