Perhaps it should be toggable by a registry key?
No, this property should be set by the installer and msi must decide whether to perform a per-machine or per-user installation based on its value and that of MSIINSTALLPERUSER as well as the privileges of the user running the installer and the version of the OS. It's a real mess:
