--- Comment #11 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
To avoid weirdness, you always need to restart an app that was running when it
was updated, or when any of the libraries that it uses are updated.

Let's say we added a system to compare the list of updated packages with the
list of running software and its library dependencies, and if there was any
intersection between the two lists, we sent a notification asking people to
reboot the system or those apps after updating.

I think this would not solve the problem because Discover *already* asks you to
reboot after updating, and evidently you ignored that notification. :) Discover
already told you what you needed to do, but it was up to you to do it. 

Offline Updates solves this entire problem generically by not actually applying
any of the pending updated until a reboot is done.
