If the CA fails, you expect the entire installation to rollback, right? If so,
then the CA has to scheduled before InstallFinalize because InstallFinalize is
the “commit” so a failure after that won’t rollback what happened before
InstallFinalize.
I think your next problem is going to be that you can’t schedule your CA before
InstallFinalize because the NAnt files aren’t available for use until after
InstallFinalize.

The custom action isn't the problem it is all the regular files put down by the
installer that don't roll-back

When is the CA scheduled? MSI rolls back only during the installation
transaction, so anything after InstallFinalize won't roll back, for example.
