We already have a tool to convert from WiX
2.0 to WiX 3.0. It’s called wixcop. I assume you were
referring to converting the source code itself (not the wixlib files) since just
having the libraries without source is a bit dangerous.

You need to set the Product/@Codepage for
the language you are using (refer to MSI documentation to find the proper
codepage number).

As you've discovered, when you install a product a cached MSI file is
created, and maintenance activities use this cached MSI file.
It's the ProductCode guid that indicates that the product is already
installed on the system, and when a product is already installed MSI goes
into maintenance mode.
If there are utilities to bring a pure WiX 2 code base
up to a pure WiX 3 code base then breaking compatibility is fine by me. We
do not intend to mix the two. The utilities would eliminate costly manual

This is all completely off-the-cuff, so it may not be

Presumably, your current installer puts appropriate entries
