You will want to embed detail components of different dimensions for the varying dimensions of the window, though. Or you can make your detail component parametric and control it via the window type parameters. I used the parametric approach, and it works great. For example, if your window family has a parameter to lengthen the jamb extension, the detail component would also lengthen based on the same parameter control.
Overall, good start.
