Is there a way to set the Start property of a Service defined in
ServiceInstall via a command line argument to msiexec? You can do this for a
lot of properties, but Start is an enumeration and the compiler seems to
want to ensure it is one of the allowed values at compile time. Are there
any ways to achieve this, simple or otherwise?

E.g. This:

  <Property Id="SERVER_STARTUP" Value="auto" />

      <ServiceInstall Id="aservice"
                      ErrorControl="normal" 
                      Start="[SERVER_STARTUP]"
                      Type="ownProcess">
       </ServiceInstall>

Produces:

error CNDL0021: The ServiceInstall/@Start attribute's value,
'[SERVER_STARTUP]', is not one of the legal options: 'auto', 'demand', or
'disabled'.
