 I do want updates. Kernel updates, for example, are very important -
they carry many improvements - not just drivers but functionality as
well. The ones that are less obvious are the bugs that happen rarely but
that can be nasty (an occasional file system glitch for example).

 The rare-but-nasty bug fixes will seldom have user demand - but
nonetheless once identified and fixed should be shared.

 These kind of non-user-demand driven fixes should not be ignored in any
noone-is-asking so dont release approach.
