The origin calculation is not accurate. Such as an installation of 100M, the actual space taken would be 100.4M. So, I want to tell the user, if he just have merely enough space to pass DiskSpaceCheck step, that he would fail. The simplest way to do this, seems to be use ReserveCost table to add extra 1% space in the accumulated sum. But, I don't know the actually space, until in runtime, since we might change the source file before we build final installer, and the size of the generated MSI file, and temporary space taken in system drive are not known until we actually have the MSI file, and install it.
