Not really sure what you are meaning by an embedded UI here. GPO publishes
MSIs silently to client machines.

Also its possible to push several MSIs as part of one policy (we have to
document this for our customers so they can install prerequisites) so I don't
see an absolute requirement for chaining apart from simplicity.

That or a embedded UI would need to be implemented in the WiX toolset.
Personally, I jumped over that feature and went for the full blown
bootstrapper/chainer with Burn... but GPO functionality does suffer a bit.
Might be an interesting feature to implement in the future to provide a
"stock embedded UI" from WiX toolset.
