Its smell like bug. Because If I am declaring fragment that contains
only properties - all properties will be missing in Property table.
But if under same fragment, in addition to properties I will declare
some feature or component all properties will be added to Property
table.

I am speaking about real flow. In my installer I have develop some
extension that extend <Property> element. My extension data also
disappear from MSI tables if fragment contains only properties.
Currently I had found some workaround, I am declaring some dummy
component under same Fragment to resolve this problem.

BTW - where you suggest me declare Propertyref?
