            Bug ID: 436924
           Summary: become aware of offline updates and offer opt out
           Product: ksmserver
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
discover allows offline updates but currently we offer incredibly poor control
over it.

the logout dialog should do a number of things:

a) hint that the next startup will do offline updates
b) offer an opt-out "reboot without updates" possibly as a drowndown button
sort of thing
c) same for shutdown since updates may actually be applied either on "reboot"
or "power-off". the former would reboot after the update and the latter would
power-off, such that when using power-off and triggering a reboot you'd
effectively apply the update before the actual power-off, rather than on next
boot up

NB: not exactly a ksmserver concern I suppose, but on next boot up the updates
should probably be re-staged, not sure where that best fits, possibly discover?
if there are no new updates it could simply re-stage or if there are new
updates ask the user to add them to the stage
