Except updating PATHEXT always requires admin access. I do this manually by 
setting a user PATHEXT variable with %PATHEXT% as the first item and append the 
extensions that I need. This is okay because the system environment gets 
populated before the user environment, and a system environment that doesn't 
define PATHEXT is improperly configured. I don't know whether WiX/MSI can 
support this, but it's probably not worth the hassle and potential problems.
