One more problem with that would probably be that in the current release 
you can not pass the command line options to the WiX tools to load the 
required extension (though it will probably be in 3.0).

I don't yet know how to allow customization of the generated code to 
allow integration of extension elements like this and would be open for 
suggestions or opinions in that regard as well.

One random though would be an optional extra XML input file (or other 
format with XML snippets) that I interleave into the generated code 
based on some sort of insertion point specification.
And/Or a CMake list variable with key, value pairs consisting of 
insertion points and XML snippets.
