Hm.  Just off-the-cuff'ing here, but: could we rig the update applet
to provide info that could be reported back via smolt?  All we'd
really need to capture to settle this is the number of times a user
clicked "Update system now" vs "Show updates -> Review", right? ...and
better yet, if any packages were deselected.  A yum plugin could be
used to report the number of times someone does a "yum update."

That would give us some solid data to work with here.
