Speaking from a user PoV - I instinctively back away from actions-by-default. My preference here would be a dialog - update the keyserver now/later. "Later" in effect provides a nag screen, but gives newer users time to think about what they are doing. A related issue - I've seen many people not really understand the Web of Trust. An urgent need is to educate them about local signing for less investigated signatures. There isn't much you can do about those who take the lazy route and sign keys without any investigation, but somehow we have to try to rein in un-investigated keys being uploaded. Not trying to teach granny to suck eggs :-) but this is my immediate reaction.
