Ok, that makes sense. Apparently it’s smart enough to select an appropriate theme, thankfully. I don’t have to have a separate theme for every culture-language combination: my bundle.wxl only has 1 French theme, 1036 (French-France). When I install on a Windows 7 box with the Region and Language..Format set to French (Canada), the installer runs in French, and WixStdBALanguageId = 1036, as you indicated it should. So I don’t have to have a separate theme for French (Canada).
So, if we have to release with WiX 3.9 R2, I’ll use UserLanguageID, but if we can wait for Wix 3.10, I’ll use WixStdBALanguageId.
