You have to reference the "F.Plugin.Users.Sync" Feature in the "F.Plugin.Users" Feature (as this is referenced in the "F.Plugins" feature) for that tree to work.
As Bob A says, the problem here is your trying to refer to a parent feature in a child fragment & WiX doesn't work like that (references must always be parent -> child & in this case, "F.Plugin.Users" is the parent, "F.Plugin.Users.Sync" is the child).
