I have had similar experiences with the FilesInUse dialog, although its
appearance (or lack thereof) has not been restricted to uninstalls. I've
never gotten around to determining why this behavior happens, however,
so I don't have a definite answer for you.

If you have a log handy of an uninstall that failed to show the
FilesInUse dialog, you might be able to find some clues by looking at
the InstallValidate action messages. This is where the checks are made
for files to be removed which also happen to be currently in use by a
running process.

If you don't see anything there, then maybe check out messages from the
various file costing actions, where the files to be overwritten/removed
are determined and calculated.
