I'm not using the WiX UI, so I don't think just upgrading to 3.5 would fix things. However the change appears to be the same, which is to just bypass the 'please wait' dialog, so I guess I'll just go along with that.
It would be nice to know what I can expect to happen if costing has completed yet. If the user clicks on and then tries to customise the install, will bad things happen or will progress just get held up until costing has completed?
