q1 - In the new wix3 way patch msp generation xml is there a way to specify the 
<PatchFamily> element to cover get the msp patch generated to cover changes to 
all components from v1.0 to v1.1 versus having what appears to be the need to 
specify every component explicitly as the patch help document sample syntax 
suggests?

<Patch AllowRemoval="yes" Description="!(loc.ProductName)" 
Manufacturer="!(loc.ProductName)" MoreInfoURL="!(loc.ProductUrl)" 
Classification="Update" DisplayName="!(loc.ProductName)">

    <Media Id="5000" Cabinet="Rtm.cab">

        <PatchBaseline Id="Rtm" />

    </Media>



    <PatchFamilyRef Id="v11ReleasePatchFamily"/>

</Patch>



<Fragment>

   <PatchFamily Id="v11ReleasePatchFamily" Version="1.0.0.0" Supersede="yes">

       <ComponentRef Id="Service1" />

   </PatchFamily>

</Fragment>

q2 -  when a msp or msi minor upgrade is being processed do public property 
settings that were defined during the v1.0 initial installation need to be 
defined again for the minor upgrade processing or will the values specified 
during v1.0 initial installation be reused, e.g. INSTALLDIR, MYSVCWEBSITENAME, 
MYSVCWEBSITEPORT, MYSVCDATABASENAME, etc.
