I just installed WordPress 2.5 on my main site and was playing around with the automatic upgrader, from what I've seen so far, it works great on smaller plugins, but once it hits larger plugins there are a lot of things that can go wrong.
I tried to upgrade wp-phpmyadmin, and the upgrader failed, but not after deleting the install I already had. Maybe it would be better for the upgrader to try remaining the older version first rather than jumping straight to deleting it. This way, even if it fails, there is a fallback. I've seen a couple other issues, and I will install the testing plugin as soon as I can, but I won't have much time to play with it for a couple days.
