Knowing that an update would invalidate an extension would in no way prevent you from installing the update if you chose to do so. But not knowing that one's extension will no longer work until after installation causes some people to delay installation for longer than necessary, until they know for certain via external sources that there is an extension that will work. I tend to prefer information. YMMV.
Having the warnings about extensions be only an advisory, allowing you to proceed anyway, would be better than just stopping the update because of an extension conflict. However, Thunderbird doesn't exactly update itself under Linux, it depends on your distro's package management system. How would you expect yum (either directly or indirectly through yumex or the system updater or what have you) to handle this situation?
