Here is the short version of what I am trying to accomplish with Burn. I have a 
chainer that is responsible for installing up to 12 different products, plus 
prerequisites. If there is a hotfix available for one of those products, then 
there will be a new msi for that product and it will be handled as a major 
upgrade. The problem is that although hotfixes for one product are cumulative, 
the administrator for the system that the user is connecting to can decide if 
the hotfixes are needed per product. The easy fix for this is that my Burn MBA 
looks at an XML included with the MSIs to see if a "hotfix" upgrade is needed 
without swapping out the chainer. WiX will not allow me to do this, though. 
Even if I create new ExecutePackageBeginEventArgs with ShouldExecute set to 
true, it still will not happen. I am not sure where I would need to make 
adjustments to do this but I have tried in the Detect, Plan, and Execute phases 
to no avail. Any tips on how I might be able to make this work would be greatly 
appreciated.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind Regards,
Christopher Adkins
