OK, looking at the <Group> element, it doesn't let you identify a
group by its well-known SID so attempting to reference the
"Administrators" group on non-English distributions of Windows will
fail because the name of the groups are localized, but the SIDs are
always the same.

While this follows the model of permissions that Windows Installer
has, its still the wrong model.  To be honest, the small amount of
permissions stuff that is in Windows Installer itself just feels not
very well thought out to me.  Its one of the weaker areas of Windows
Installer.
