Summary: msi template entries causing garbled dialog title text

Initial Comment:
I'm a novice user. For a product, I am currently using nant-contrib to create 
an .msi . We noticed that we were seeing garbled text in the titles for the 
Repair [ProductName] and Remove [ProductName] dialogs.
Our digging revealed 2 potential leads: 
1. The docs for Control Table 
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa368044%28VS.85%29.aspx) state 
something about there must be a trailing space in the Control Table's Text for 
the installer to correctly render the text, in certain circumstances.
2. This posting in nant-users has the same symptoms (but different diagnosis): 
http://www.mail-archive.com/nant-us...@lists.sourceforge.net/msg06767.html
3. Using Orca, I edited the MSITaskTemplate.msi and ensured these entries' keys 
had trailing spaces: Control > VerifyRepairDlg > Title > Text 
([DlgTitleFont]Repair [ProductName] ), and Control > VerifyRemoveDlg > Title > 
Text ([DlgTitleFont]Remove [ProductName] ). They didn't have a trailing space 
out of the box.
4. Rebuild, created installer. That fixed it!

So I just wanted to report what looks to me is a bug in nant-contrib's msi 
template database. Thanks.
