Unfortunately, I'm not going to add any to your list (although there are more), just some quick comments:

MSI files are actually pretty easy to manipulate. It's some kind of custom database (yes, you can run SQL queries against it and all), but there's a standard API for it (pretty straightforward e.g. MsiOpenDatabase to open a msi file - and there's a C# wrapper out there), full docs on MSDN, there's a MSI SDK, etc. And there's a fair amount of tools for it (even some stuff on sourceforge). I think it's one of the best formats out there (easier to manipulate than the others at least).

InstallShield wise, most of the tools out there are for very old versions like 6, when v11 is out... (that's one reason why I like msi - no need for extensive reverse engineering to peek inside like that)

Also, there are some NSIS unpackers.
