Missing localisation entries from WIX output

Hi there,

This is more of an observation than anything, I've got a work around, not sure if it's a limitation of WIX output or a bug.

I've added support for the Firewall extension by using WIX fragments as detailed here,

This works great in MSI Factory, but we do not build our installer directly in MSI Factory, we output WIX so that our standard TFS build process can be used.

I get around this by adding them manually to my English-US.wxs file.
