The component must have the msidbComponentAttributesTransitive bit set (don't know the WiX syntax for this). This should remove the component during (auto-)repair, modify and small and minor updates - probably not what you want. BTW in case of Major Upgrade, Installed is FALSE. I don't fully undertsand what you are trying to achieve, bt maybe msidbComponentAttributesNeverOverwrite would do what you want.
