By "moved into place" I'm referring to the default web.config & app.config 
having been copied by the msi to the INSTALLDIR path where they need to reside. 
 Once in place I was hoping that XmlConfig allows me to update entries 
configured with default settings in these files with a host specific value.

Am I interpreting things correctly in that XmlConfig doesn't allow updating an 
existing node such as an AppKey or Settings entry and insteady you'd need to 
deploy a web.config & app.config w/o those entries already there and then 
"Create" the entries that you do want or first "Delete" the entry containing a 
default setting followed by a "Create" to put the host specific entry in place?

Yes, among other use cases.


On a similar front should one expect the Action="create" behavior to support 
update of a default node entry already in place in the service deliverable 
default web.config & app.config files that get moved into place?

What do you mean by "moved into place"? Action="create" creates new nodes; I 
don't know that it lets you update an existing node.
