If desktop/laptop users are the target of the 1st release (and in the interest of overall project focus) then I'd think this feature (minimizing reboots after upgrades) would belong in the "do-later" bucket. My thought here is that when it comes to their desktop/laptop systems (compared to server users) users are way more obliging about reboots after upgrades.
