The ServiceControl element may help. There's no option to restart a service, only to stop or start on install/uninstall/both. I'm pretty sure that the StopServices action occurs before the StartServices action, so you could create 2 components, one to stop the service on install, and another to start the service on install. You would then have to make you're modifications between these events. I've no clue how valid an idea this is, but it's a starting point.
