I see you've already gone down the exe path somewhat, but I would like
to point out that you can debug MSI DLLs - just not via the debugger
(albeit maybe you can, as the links below made mention of info in
MSI.chm, but I believe it is meant to be a lot of effort).
It's not that bad. The easiest way is to include a conditional
MessageBox call then, when it's visible and therefore blocking, use your
debugger to attach to the msiexec.exe process that's showing the message
box.
Anyway, if you search for MsiRecordSetString and logging you should be
well on your way. I've got a function that does exactly this in one of
my custom action dlls, and it proved invaluable.
You can simplify that using WcaLog in WiX's wcautil.lib.
