Will the upgrade be seamless regardless of how they upgrade their version? Will they be able to recover their website after disaster from a backup with the old layout? If the answer is anything else than a definite yes (and I can imagine at least a scenario where MW is upgraded without Postgre), then yes, it makes sense to try and reduce the surprise effect. Even if they don't have an opinion about it, knowing of the change will help them upgrade.
