I have the following for in my bundle.wxs...

<BootstrapperApplicationRef Id="
WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense" />

The exe shows the Burn license file dialog (obviously) and then the msi
ui.  It also shows a Burn status dialog.

Is there a BootstrapperApplicationRef Id I can use that shows no ui?  or do
I have to build my own BA?  I can't imagine there is no way to use Burn to
localize an msi without adding new dialogs. There has to be someone who has
the experience to know this.
