It will be a sad thing if the only way you can move from one build to the other 
is by downloading the Iso's agian and the doing a reinstall

It's sad. This was discussed before. Some earlier comments:

Some suggestions:
- Don't upgrade too frequently if the current install works well. Only
upgrade when you see significant features/fixes you're interested
with.
- Use "Live Ugrade", or run upgrade install from the network, both
save your time when you need to upgrade.
- Use NexentaOS, a GNU style OpenSolaris distribution that supports
online upgrade: "apt-get dist-upgrade".

Tao
