You can't even use a property in the Directory table DefaultDir column. I hacked the Python MSI to add a custom action to set MENUDIR and it works. So you could have a text box on the Advanced dialog that defaults to "Python 2.4" and can be overridden. Of course, then you have to worry about short file names...

But can you use that also to address a subfolder? I.e. if that were to contain a backslash ("Programming\Python 2.4" instead of "Python 2.4"), would that work?
