It's not fixed key. I use bootstrapper to gather various configuration information from user which are then used to configure product and not all of then are passed to MSIs. Adding logic to MSI to be able to get this information via MSI properties, parse it and then store it in registry is just unreasonably complex compared to few lines in .NET code in BS. What I ended up doing is that I detect requirement for elevation in BS and I let BS start itself as elevated process using "runas" verb. I feel really bad about it but so far that is far more maintainable than pushing logic to MSI custom actions.
