Or put another way is the following ENVIRONMENTID public property reference in
the CertificateRef Id value an option when it comes to defining certs
associated with a given web site so that I can have the msi use a different
cert for the web site depending on the service deliverable environment I'm
deploying the cert to?
<iis:WebSite Id="Site1WebSite" Description="Site1 Web Site"
Directory="Site1Dir">
<iis:WebAddress Id="Site1WebAddress" Port="[SITE1PORT]" Secure="yes" />
<iis:CertificateRef Id="Site1Certificate[ENVIRONMENTID]" />
</iis:WebSite>

adding certificate to store?
I have a service deliverable msi where I need to be able to pass in a public
property value that defines the name of an existing cert that the msi will
associate with a new 443 site it creates.
q1 - If I include the ssl certs for each of my service deliverable environments
where the msi will be run to deploy service bits (e.g. dev, deployment
verification test, test, perf, beta, pre-production, user acceptance testing,
production hot standby, production) then do I have a way of using a public
property value to define which cert gets used in each case?
q2 - if there currently isn't a way to reference a cert already installed on
the host (which is the case in beta, pre-production, user acceptance testing,
production hot standby, production environments where we don't create & manage
the systems) can I include some type of dummy cert for those cases and flag the
iis:Certificate entry such that it won't try and install it if it already sees
a certificate of that name in the local machine store?

Unfortunately, I don't think the current Certificate code is going to support
that. The code could be updated to handle the scenario though.

Did this work and if so does there exist a sample of what it means to create a
permanent component Certificate entry that refers to an ssl certificate already
known to be present on hosts you are deploying to? In other words I just want
my iis site settings to bind to port 443 and use an known in advance ssl
certificate already present on the target systems.

Try putting the Certificate element in a permanent Component.
