I'm not sure it is very easy to read, but there is ClickThrough support for
Office Add-ins. The ClickThrough stuff may not all work but if you go through
the code in wix\src\ext\OfficeExtension\wixext\OfficeAddinMsiBuilder.cs you'll
see the WiX CodeDom is used to create a .wxs file that writes all the necessary
registration for a managed code add-in. It worked for a test add-in I had that
did nothing... might give you another point of reference.
This part looks particularly useful:
Wix.RegistryKey registryKey = new Wix.RegistryKey();
registryKey.Root = Wix.RegistryRootType.HKMU;
registryKey.Key =
String.Format("Software\\Microsoft\\Office\\{0}\\Addins\\{1}",
OfficeAddinFabricator.OfficeApplicationStrings[(int)extendedOfficeApp],
this.ShimProgid);
shimComponent.AddChild(registryKey);
Wix.RegistryValue registryValue = new Wix.RegistryValue();
registryValue.Name = "Description";
registryValue.Value = "[ProductName] v[ProductVersion]";
registryValue.Type = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
registryKey.AddChild(registryValue);
registryValue = new Wix.RegistryValue();
registryValue.Name = "FriendlyName";
registryValue.Value = "[ProductName]";
registryValue.Type = [EMAIL PROTECTED];
registryKey.AddChild(registryValue);
registryValue = new Wix.RegistryValue();
registryValue.Name = "LoadBehavior";
registryValue.Value = "3";
registryValue.Type = Wix.RegistryValue.TypeType.integer;
registryKey.AddChild(registryValue);

This means it's not documented on where one has to place what? The
registry entries are not documented also. Wow that sounds
"interesting"
