The key "IFPkgDescriptionTitle" is displayed by the installer. Well I tried playing with this and had the same results Iceberg-Dev already mentioned--no such file, and adding it doesn't appear to do anything. I *have*, recently, seen installers that do have different progress messages. Maybe I just need to take their packages apart and see how they did it...

The default is to use the last part of the package identifier. This isn't always what we want, and it'd be great if we could change the whole message in some cases. For example we have a scripts-only target which should probably say something like "Preparing for installation", rather than "Installing pre-install" I didn't run across anything in the official documents, but then that's often the case, even for things which are doable.
