You can use Burn to chain together 3rd party pre-requisites and your
MSI(s).  Detecting hotfixes is the tricky part.  I believe the cannonical
way to do so is via WMI, which you can do if you write your own
bootstrapper application (BA) for Burn, but if you only want to use what
comes out of the box, then your next best bet is to check the versions of a
particular file that's included in the updates you want installed.  If you
look at the KB pages you'll see the list of files that get updated and the
versions they get updated to, and your bootstrapper just needs to detect
that the version is above whatever minimum you need to work with.
