No, we're talking about requiring fewer reboots for normal users.
Prompting a user like this teaches them to ignore recommendations. This
isn't a good thing.
there are no mandatory reboots in PackageKit, you are notified what packages
will cause a request to reboot and you can exit the process without
rebooting!!!!!! Or you can remove the packages from the update processes
and install when convenient for you.
