What do you mean by "a mix" ? This property isn't set afaik, but it could
be set via msiexec argument (and possibly by install option). I think this
just changes the default, but that's not really something that is radically
changing the package and breaking updates imho. You could probably still
install with ALLUSERS=0 anyway after.

I would rather use WiX <Package InstallScope="perMachine"/> attribute.
