Is it possible to upgrade only a specific feature within an MSI? Consider a 
single MSI that contains two features: A and B. This MSI is installed with both 
features as v1. I then want to only upgrade feature B with a v2 version of the 
MSI. Is this possible? Is this recommended? Are there any alternatives?

My real scenario is that I am trying to consolidate the large number of MSIs 
that we have (today each MSI installs either a website or a virtual directory). 
This means that for a site with two virtual directories we have 3 MSIs. 
Instead, I have moved to a model where we have a single MSI with three features 
(1 site, 2 vdirs). However, our current design allows us to hotfix just a 
virtual directory without affecting the hosting site. Without getting into the 
world of patches (I only want to support major upgrades), it seems like I would 
lose the ability to just upgrade a single feature.

I hope I am wrong.

Thanks,
Navid
