In my wix msi I am giving the user a choice of per-user vs.
system-wide.  

What is the best way to indicate a nested directory structure in
ApplicationFolderName?

Examples do not show how to do a nested directory structure.  

My directory structure looks like this, where the product is nested
inside a folder named for the company, as there are many other products.
<!-- Directory Structure -->
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
 <Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder" Name="Pfiles">
  <Directory Id="MYPRODUCTSDIR" Name="$(var.MyCompanyName)" >
   <Directory Id="INSTALLDIR" Name="$(var.MyProductName) $(var.Version)" >
   </Directory>
  </Directory>
 </Directory>
</Directory>

In <Project> I added
 <UIRef Id="WixUI_Advanced" />

Can ApplicationFolderName look like this, where I spell out the directory 
nesting?
 <property Id="ApplicationFolderName" 
Value="$(var.MyCompanyName)\$(var.MyProductName) $(var.Version)" />

Is this the right way to do it or is there something better?

Additionally, the dialog does not look exactly like a drop in
replacement for the simple radio selection bettween per-user vs
system-wide provided in the  Visual Studio Setup Project.  Is there a
way to get that behavior?
