The following sequence of tasks seem like they would be common and I am
hoping that someone has a working example of doing this in WIX:

1. Prompt the user for information about which (new or existing) service
account should be used.  

2. Prompt the user for information about the SQL database that needs to be
created (select from a list of SQL Instances, verify connection and creation
rights, etc.)

3. Prompt the user for information about the web app that needs to be set up
(select from existing sites or prompt for host/port/name to create a new
site)

4. Create the necessary accounts, SQL database, web site, web app as
specified above.

I have found a number of examples of doing #4, all of which use hard-coded
values for the information I want to prompt for in #1 - 3.  Building a nice
interactive UI like I see in various Microsoft installers seems like a lot
of tedious work, especially if we have to start from scratch writing lots of
custom actions.  Does WIX have more support for this than I realize, or are
there less-trivial examples out there?
