Comment(by lpinner):
I've found a workaround! Documenting here for posterity.
{{{
@echo off
REM osgeo4w-setup-noelevation.bat
set __COMPAT_LAYER=RUNASINVOKER
start "" "osgeo4w-setup.exe"
}}}
Note: my original request remains. This installer does not need UAC
elevation by default. If someone is experienced enough to install and
configure a Windows service (such as Apache), then they're experienced
enough to know how to right click on the installer and select "Run as
administrator".
Please change the manifest to "<requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker"
uiAccess="false"/>"
