No updates for a year, and then within 2 days I'm bombarded with SRU 6.0 on
DVD and then SRU 7.5 via HTTPS repo.

Fairly seamless as an update though.

It would just be nice if you could self-service the cert and key without
paying for support.
But Hey.

Anyway, on a slightly different rant, it would be nice if the SRU was
easily identifiable:

root@marvin:~# cat /etc/release
                           Oracle Solaris 11 11/11 X86
  Copyright (c) 1983, 2011, Oracle and/or its affiliates.  All rights
reserved.
                            Assembled 18 October 2011

root@marvin:~# uname -a
SunOS marvin 5.11 11.0 i86pc i386 i86pc Solaris

Ah, this would do it:
