Yes, user interaction - some sort of definitive step to indicate to  
the user that they're not just updating all the packages on their  
system that have updated versions in the repository to which bug fixes  
are available, but essentially an upgrade ie. the equivalent of apt  
upgrade vs apt dist-upgrade

I don't think it's a stopper for the 2008.05 (BTS) re-spin, but I  
think it's something that we need to consider for 2008.11.
