So there are Visibility Control for Interior & Exterior Muntins. If you want to add a second layer of control on, you would need to add a bunch of parameters & formulas. Or, keeping it simple, create two new & rename the current Visibility controls and apply them to every muntin in the family.
Windows typically stick out past the exterior face of the wall for water shedding purposes. When a window is installed, the molding on the exterior gets wrapped with a J-Channel flashing. Then the siding material gets slid into that. Depending how good your installer is, or how you detail the window, a self-healing water proof membrane would get installed over the nailing flange. Then when the J flashing is installed, caulking would be installed between it and the wall, so water always sheds away from the structure.
On the interior, windows will come measured to the depth of the wall. Once the drywall is installed, interior trim should fit flush against the window frame (Jambs, Sill & Header). Make sure that the wall thickness is properly called out for each wall/window condition.
This family does flex properly to differing wall thicknesses. The only problem you may have is if the wall is to thin to accommodate the window's construction.
I hope this helps,
