It might be interesting for microcode updates (and the occasional security 
update they get), but providing updates for nvidia drivers would be more 
complicated - the drivers tend to evolve and sometimes regressions occur 
with no choice other than trying a new, hopefully "stable", version or a 
full rollback.
