I just tested on 4.1.2-SNAPSHOT and 4.2.0-SNAPSHOT:
- I created a features XML with a feature containing install="manual"
- I packaged this features XML as a kar
- I installed the kar installation via both deploy folder and kar:install 
command

The install attribute is correctly taking in account. In the log, I can even 
see:

2017-08-04 08:49:58,453 | WARN | -SNAPSHOT/deploy | KarServiceImpl | 35 - org.apache.karaf.kar.core - 4.1.2.SNAPSHOT | Feature test/1.0.0.SNAPSHOT has install flag set to "manual", so it's not automatically installed

So, it works fine for me.

Regards
JB

Will rename, thanks. :)

Side question. I was not able to track down the difference between
"dependency" and "prerequisite" boolean attributes on the feature tag. Or
how the former differs from the same attribute on the bundle tag.

Can you provide an explanation or a link to such?

Thanks again!
