I pushed packages for a couple years using SMS 2003 ( think my largest push was 
12,000 machines )   A few quick thoughts....
   
  SMS actually lets you get away with some CA problems that a proper managed 
elevation / UAC scenario would smack down.  So test for that story and you'll 
be extra confident that everything will work.
   
  Advertise the package with /JM and test the elevated silent story by logging 
in as a non-priv user and doing a /I /QN     This is important because I've 
seen problems ( mainly with InstallShield's former DCOM/ROT based InstallScript 
engine which would incrorrectly impersonate the logged on user instead of the 
launching user.    This problem is mostly gone now but it still goes to 
illustrate the potential problem.
   
  Build your package with the MSI exposed so that the SMS Advanced Client can 
track the package on the distribution point by {ProductCode} for Source 
Resolution purposes.
   
  Run the package as System and don't let it interact with the desktop.

  It should just work fine. I don't use SMS though so you might follow up 
with them if you have issues.
