But as I understand it, it's WiX that controls whether or not the
button has the shield icon: I'm wondering if it should use the shield
icon on the button at all if the elevation request doesn't happen
straight away.  I'm tending towards yes, since it's a sign that the
action that will occur will need to run as Administrator.
