Are there any plans to let packages specify that they do not require a
total system reboot to be updated?

The other day, Gnome software prompted me to reboot just to update
google chrome. Given that nothing depends on chrome, and also that the
Linux version of chrome is specifically designed to tolerate having its
files on disk overwritten
(http://neugierig.org/software/chromium/notes/2011/08/zygote.html),
rebooting the whole system seems overkill to ensure a successful update

ignore all that GUI update crap and just use "yum upgrade"
no need for reboot a linux system for every update
that's not windows

"lsof | grep DEL | grep /usr" will show you processes you may conisder to restart (and not the needs-restarting command was never relieable here)
