I've spent a couple of hours researching this and I can't see how this
can be achieved in wix without manually re-authoring all the dialogues
and adding a custom action (which would be a *lot* of work).

The way we're adding the association is exactly per Wix/MS's spec.
Trying to move it into a seperate feature so it can be disabled causes
the database to fail it's ICE69 validation check because it needs to be
in the same feature as it's target.

Ideas anyone? Magnus?
