Interesting discussion. That brought me to the point to run wix36.exe /layout. As expected in a firewall protected company environment the web bootstrapper didn't work (see below log). Also I expect different behaviors in different company environments using different "web download proxy virus scanners" (or as these things are called). I think doing an implementation for all that is almost impossible.
But what about an approach to spend burn an additional parameter to get a list of URLs (e.g. /downloadurls ). Imho almost every firewall should be able to handle manual downloading of MSI files. Not very comfortable but at least an approach to get an offline image in a company environment...
