I have created a very nice installer using Inno setup and it is about 50
times easier to code for than the current
cryptic WIX setup. Why don't you have a look?
Here is the source with a bsd license:
http://www.amsoftwaredesign.com/downloads/pg_installer_setup.zip

All the create user and runas stuff is done using API commands via a
Delphi or Free Pascal DLL(not tested but should work)
It does not use the RunAs service at all and handles the initDB.

You could also use a C or C++ dll just as easily.

Just reminding everyone it's out there.
