Just because WIX ships a set of UI dialogs does not mean you need to use them.

I do not use any of the WIX dialogs and have create my own.  This allows me to 
enable and modify the UI whenever I wish.

Due to this the choice is completely yours, if you use the standard dialogs you 
get what is there or you can modify these to meet your needs.

The choice is completely yours.

It's not entirely up to the user since WiX ships with standard UIs such as 
WiXUI_Minimal which provides buttons with the ElevationShield property set.
