Unless they have corrupted the filesystem itself, they can 
reinstall/upgrade without reformatting.  Are you thinking of the case 
where doing this doesn't overwrite a config file the user broke?  Do we 
really want a user to have to format their hard drive to fix that sort 
of problem?  Sounds like the wrong direction to me.
