The standard BA supplied by WiX uses <bal:Condition> and evaluates it right 
after detection before planning. The one used to install the toolset also uses 
that same tag. You don't need a custom BA to use <bal:Condition> (although a 
custom BA would need to be coded to use it). A custom BA doesn't need 
<bal:Condition> (unless it deliberately chooses to support it).
