Unfortunately verbose logging on its own is not enough, to get a property dump 
you also need to set INSTALLLOGMODE_PROPERTYDUMP. So effectively burn is 
running the msi with /Lv which misses some of the useful logging.

I would suggest that the default logging should really be:
INSTALLLOGMODE_FATALEXIT |
INSTALLLOGMODE_ERROR |
INSTALLLOGMODE_WARNING |
INSTALLLOGMODE_USER |
INSTALLLOGMODE_INFO |
INSTALLLOGMODE_RESOLVESOURCE |
INSTALLLOGMODE_OUTOFDISKSPACE |
INSTALLLOGMODE_ACTIONSTART |
INSTALLLOGMODE_ACTIONDATA |
INSTALLLOGMODE_VERBOSE |
INSTALLLOGMODE_PROPERTYDUMP |
INSTALLLOGMODE_COMMONDATA (this is probably not required as there isn't a UI)

This should give the equivalent of /L*v or /Lvoicewarmup. This would still 
leave out the INSTALLLOGMODE_EXTRADEBUG setting which I believe slows down 
installs. I'll raise a defect for this so it is not lost.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Burn Logging Level for MSIs

Burn always sets verbose logging and will set extra logging if you set extra 
logging in the MSI Logging registry key. I don't know why the property dump 
wouldn't show up...
