I believe that for InstallScript type of project you can only set this at component level, not at feature level, but it should be enough to get desired behavior, shouldn't it?
find the feature and give a condition that NOT Installed AND NOT PATCH eg. if you want a virtual directory not to be removed then go the the custom ation like "Remove Virtual Direcotry and ..." and sicify the above givencondition. I hope it works..

The only case with your advice is that there's no Condition property on Features in InstallScript projects.
Of course, there are no CustomActions on InstallScript projects as well.
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I don't want the feature (and its components) to NEVER be uninstalled. It needs to be on a conditional basis. If THIS is the case, prevent the uninstallation of feature A. If THAT is the case, proceed with the uninstallation of feature A.
