All the bootstrap solutions have this limitation. If you want to go for 'pure msi' you need to list the prerequisites in the install instructions and let the admin sort it themselves (maybe have a bootstrap as well, but not make it mandatory.. depends on who you're selling to primarily). We do this - because it's a requirement of our customers that we use msi not exe (they're finicky.. although they say it's for GPO compatibility I've never actually heard of anyone actually using this - it's all about ticking boxes with them), so whereas we install what we can external dependencies are listed in the install manual.
