I might think a generic implementation to support this scenario of allowing
users to define public property values on the command line and/or in a single
xml file would involve a customAction sequenced to process right up front
during install/unstall and simply read the one per line property=value settings
from the public property "PROPERTYSETTINGS" defined xml file path and applied
them to the msi session object exposed public properties.
Would you think a person would have to create an extension or simply a custom
action managed (javascript or dtf managed msi library implementation) that gets
sequenced to process b4/after ??? to enable this?

environmentSpecificPropertySettings.xml consists of a single public
property=value pairs on each line that you might have otherwise set directly on
the command line but would prefer to keep them all in xml file so as to remove
changes of command line entry mistakes.
Not today.
