Where is this extension documented?  I get a file not found when
attemping to access this URL.

shell 125> wget http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension
--11:03:01--  http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/UtilExtension
           => `UtilExtension'

You probably don't want to do that; this user exists only for the
purposes of this software, so if this software is uninstalled, the
user should be deleted as well.

Since I can't look at the documentation for these nodes, I can't be
certain of how these values are interpeted.  However, referring to a
the Administrators group by its name and not its well-known SID is
going to fail on non-English distributions of Windows.
