[wix-users] Hide the Bundle UI

I see. Well, I do wish that the available documentation stated right up 
front to avoid building a UI in the MSI completely and to put it into 
the bundle. I feel like I have wasted time.

Anyway, if I remove the UI, which lets the user select the install 
location and whether or not to put a shortcut on the desktop, from my 
MSI and move that user interaction into the bundle (however that is 
accomplished), how would I then pass the user-specified options to my 
MSI for the actual MSI install?

The internal UI is "mostly functional", but as the MSI UI limits you there isn't a lot of effort being spent there.  Regardless, you will still have your initial bundle screen which as far as I am aware cannot be hidden.
