There is a "force uninstall" option available to BA's that will ignore permanent.

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Altering repair behavior of a bundle Thanks Phill, I didn't catch where the fragments were defined in the source tree until now. I suppose I could define my own PackageGroup for this based on the existing one. What exactly would I change to make sure the repair is not performed when the bundle is repaired? Would I simply remove the 'RepairCommand' attribute? For that matter, why would an ExePackage marked as 'Permanent="yes"' need an 'UninstallCommand' attribute set? Wouldn't it be impossible to uninstall a permanent package from the bundle?
