We've had this discussion before.  Because the documentation says what it
says, the WiX toolset does not allow the title to change.  If you can get
the documentation changed then we could implement this change in the WiX
toolset.

I think you can send requests to msiwish at microsoft . com

Subject: [WiX-devs] Adding Title attribute to package & patch

Hi,

My organisation has a requirement for in-house packages to have
discriptive text in Title field on Summary page.

The two questions I have are:
- looking in MS doco it does say that "Installation Database" is one of
the possible values but does not really say that it has to be it. So, is
there anything wrong with putting custom message there?

- secondly, can 'Title' attribute be added to Package & Patch elements?
If yes, I have already got code changes (Compile.cs & wix.xsd) to make
this happen. The new attribute would be optional. Default value would be
"Installation Database". If there are no significant objections I could
send an updated version of source code to whoever has time & access to
commit the change.

Thanks,
Alexei
