In response to Sean, seems the more robust thing is to make controls’
visibility conditional on variables since we already have a variable containing
the operation. This is how VS's setup works. Granted it's built on WPF, but
showing and hiding controls is a pretty fundamental behavior. Heck, even MSI
dialogs support that.

Actually you do. I'm not convinced it's needed. I'm only convinced some
people want it because they have it today. I'm also convinced that
uninstall isn't *that* special.

Or add to ThmUtil the ability for a text-capable control to choose among
multiple strings based on conditions. Probably other options we could
come up with caffeinated around a whiteboard. :)
