--- Comment #2 from Mike Kaganski <mikekaganski at hotmail.com> ---
This is the feature of Windows Installer, which provides separate numbers for
feature and subfeatures. The strings used for that (SelChildCostPos,
SelChildCostNeg, SelParentCostPosPos, SelParentCostPosNeg, SelParentCostNegPos
and SelParentCostNegNeg) are documented in [1].

A hack that could be used to implement this is described in [2]. But I doubt
that it's useful. The separate numbers are designed by MS specifically this
way; and using subfeatures size as component size (as [2] suggests) is not
correct, since some features may have own size, and showing subcomponents size
would not include the main selection size (so a string like "this feature
requires 200 KB; its subcomponents need 150 KB" would be shown "this feature
and its subfeatures require 150 KB").

This is NOTABUG, since this works as intended and provides correct information.
