I find that after installing from IE8 the installer launches the browser again using the same Administrator privileges that the installer requested with UAC. I'm not sure this is in the best interest of the user.

I think this is primarily to demonstrate that Flash installed correctly, or didn't as the case may be. If you're logged on as Adminstrator, then that modus operandi will prevail.

You could try logging in with a user a/c with less priviliges and then right click the installation file and choose "Run As Administrator", but I can't guarantee it'll work.
