Jason, If you already have custom actions doing this you could put the files you are looking for into the Binary table in the MSI and stream them over (immediate CA -> deferred CA) and then invoke you actions on those files. This is generally the less touchy way of getting references to needed files on install/ROLLBACK/uninstall.
