Out of pure curiosity, why would you need to do your own custom bootstrapper? The WiX Burn bootstrapper is incredibly flexible and allows you to completely control everything I can imagine anyone would need. What does Burn not do that you need?
Thanks for satisfying my curiosity.

I assume that if I write my bootstrapper from scratch, I shouldn't run into complications, but if I start with the standard bootstrapper code and make some changes that fits my situation, I've created a derivative work and therefore would be required to make the source code publicly available. (At least according to Wikipedia) I imagine there will be people looking to have a place to start with, and the standard bootstrapper source code is where they will probably go. Has this been discussed? Are there any plans to address this? Perhaps a bootstrapper template that is released under less restrictive terms where derivative source code isn't required to be made public availability. Or perhaps a more configurable bootstrapper where dialogs can be suppressed and custom dialogs can be added.
