Updates are already categorized as 'security', 'bugfix' or 'feature'.
You can isolate updates of each type in the GUI app, you can configure
the system to automatically install 'security' updates but not other
updates in the background.

It's possible you might run into dependency issues doing so, of course,
but usually it works out, I believe.
