A trick I've employed is to add a "debug" dialog to the UI.  Setting a
property from the command-line enabled a Debug... button on all
dialogs that spawns the debug dialog.  There you can enter formatted
text and have it evaluated as well as scroll through a listbox of
properties to see their values.  Its come in handy on a number of
occasions because your formatted strings are evaluated during the
install session, giving you the ability to prototype Formatted values
and the like.  I don't know if this is something that people would
like to see in the WiX UI templates, but I can see about creating one
if there's interest.
