You could use HTA technology (something like XUL, but coming from Microsoft)
to create a custom installer application that has nothing to do with MSI. All
you need to know is a little HTML, a little CSS, alittle DOM and a little
VBScript or JScript. Very flexible and customisable ;).
Though I shou
Is there a reason why you don't want the registry entries? If this is a
MUST, you can always launch a simple application automatically after the
install that cleans the registry from any traces of your setup. But, really,
don't see a reason for that.

I would recommond against using a Windows Installer for such a task. There
is no default handling inside the Windows Installer engine which creates
backups. There is a way to make the MSI hidden so it does not show up in
Add/Remove Programs. With the requirements you are listing above I would say
