Condition the custom actions based on a property within the merge module, defaulting the property value such that the custom actions run by default. Then the user can pass a different value on the command line for that property so that the condition will no longer be true and the custom actions won't run. Note that the property name in the merge module will by default be modularized so that the end user will actually need to set the value for PropertyName.ModuleGuidWithDashesAsUnderscores
