So is that other executions of the same installation e.g. on repair or 
uninstall?

What I was after was a way of saving the install folder if someone changes it 
so that when they upgrade it installs to the same folder - will I have to do 
that in the MSI and read the value back in the bundle?

It persists the Variable for future executions of the Bundle. It is not 
currently possible to access persisted Variables for other Bundles (although I 
believe there is a bug open to add the functionality for related Bundles).
