Kendy told me that he did not do anything special, his tinderbox builds the
installer the same way. 

However, your workflow is somehow not ideal.

This is true, you create an administrative install image with msiexec /a, by a
side effect it is runnable. Installer runs with administrator privileges.

This is false, because Data folder can be anywhere, it is not necessary to have
it under the same folder. Why don't you put your Data folder to somewhere that
your normal user can write, or why don't you create your administrative install
under a user-writable directory?

In my opinion it is not a bug, unless I did not understand your problem
correctly.
