Feature selection can be done in a custom BA.

However, applications with Features are often over segmented.  For example, I 
have a product that has six features, but in reality it is always installed in 
one of three sets of those features.  The Feature-Tree actually makes this 
harder requiring individual selection/deselection of features one mouse click 
at a time.  Ironically, the look of the Feature-Tree is appreciated, but it's 
utility is not.

Although the Feature-Tree is sexy, it doesn't reflect the actual way the 
product is installed in the field.  A radio button control and three sets of 
conditional packages would work much better.

The bottom line is it is more productive to think in terms of packages than 
features.

It seems that with an Bundle, one cannot have feature selections?
So that one cannot choose to install some of the included packages?, that
limits the usage somehow..
