This would be handy for display names, which include version or language
information.

Acrobat Reader and Firefox are two examples, where language and/or version
information is included in the display name.

This would save changing the string of the display name for each new release
and it would make it possible to allow higher/different versions of those
applications, if they were updated by the user of the notebook during a long
journey.

The display name is good to check, but if I need a more reliable check, I
usually use the version of the main file in addition.

Example:

<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Mozilla Firefox .+" />
<check type='logical' condition='or'>
  <check type="file" condition="versiongreaterorequal"
path="%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" value="1.9.1.3483" />
  <check type="file" condition="versiongreaterorequal"
path="%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" value="1.9.1.3483" />
</check>

<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="Adobe Reader .+" />
<check type="logical" condition="or">
  <check type="file" condition="versiongreaterorequal"
path="%PROGRAMFILES%\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" value="9.1.0.163" />
  <check type="file" condition="versiongreaterorequal"
path="%PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
value="9.1.0.163" />
</check>
