No, not in the future :-) This is not how text resources
(#DLG_DESTINATION_HEADING# is a text resource) are supposed to work ;-)

Instead of hard-coding text strings into a, say, static text control, you
can use a text identifier (text ID). For example, to provide a
multi-language setup. The text ID (#DLG_DESTINATION_HEADING#) is the same
for each language-specific version; the text is different.

But you can create and use your own text ID and set it to "Destination
Folder: %_SB_INSTALLDIR%"

See attached screenshots.
