If an action which is being changed or removed (looks like pkg(5) doesn't get this right) has the attribute "reboot-needed" set to "true", then a new BE will be created for the operation (if the action is being newly installed, then a new BE may be created, but I think at the moment it never is). There's no way to tell what's going to happen based on the package alone, as which actions get updated depends on what's currently installed.
