Thanks! Do you mind changing the commit message?

I've updated the commit msg. Not sure why the CI failed on an ARM build for Linux as this only touches the MSI installer for Windows... seems unrelated. |

ping... @fhinkel any thing else you need on this? |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I can't reproduce the original issue as I don't have a non-english OS at hand, but the fix makes sense.
I've tested a MSI build with this on Windows 2008R2 and Windows 10 and did not see any issue.

Installing the latest builds on Windows, I noticed the installer was display incorrect strings for the status text on the progress page. Digging into this a little I found the root cause.
It appears localization work has started on the installer (even though still only for en-us at the moment). However a
UIRefelement required for localized errors and progress text is missing, causing the progress status messages (and others) in the installer to display the template string incorrectly.This fix simply adds the required
UIRefas outlined at the end of the doc page at http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/wixui/wixui_localization.html, or in the StackOverflow answer at http://stackoverflow.com/a/5986030/1674945 .Below shows the progress dialog before and after the change.
