as long as the dependency has the reboot configured on it, it should reboot
(and does to the best of my memory). Definitely worth testing out though
(on both apps and programs).

the first app installed is not the one deployed so when the system starts

dependencies survived reboots in 2007 and 2003 so this should really be no
different.

ConfigMgr approvals – they (unfortunately) cannot be revoked. The WMI
objects are marked as read-only. You may be able to elevate the account
used to local System and get it done that way, but for whatever reason,
they were coded to be permanent and immutable.
