Public bug reported:

Whenever I run an upgrade that requires a reboot (e.g. kernel upgrade),
I get a dialog saying "Please restart the computer to begin using your
updated software" immediately after the upgrade; fair enough, I click
"restart later". *Every time*, the same dialog appears about 3 minutes
later, asking me to restart. Usually it goes away for a bit longer after
I click "restart later" for the second time, but every time I do an apt
operation it appears again.

I would suggest that, probably, three minutes is not likely to be enough
time for _anyone_ to have finished doing whatever has caused them to
press "restart later" – it's especially bad that the dialog reappears
early if you do other things with apt, since you end up having to
continually dismiss it if you're trying to fix something broken before
you reboot.

Would it be an idea to rate-limit the dialog so that it appears, at
most, once an hour or so?
