Just for curiosity, I set the title string resource:

  <String Id="Title">[WixBundleName] [UserLanguageID] 
[SystemLanguageID]</String>

It says "Name 1031 1031", however the GUI is still in English. So WiX seems to 
totally ignore the regional settings, or the probing code is not correct.

What's wrong here?
