Thanks very much for taking the time to post... very simple and to the point.
Another method I've found for those concerned about using a terminal under a DE is to
check out dnf-automatic: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/AutoUpdates
There is currently an open bug regarding the use of email notifications when using
dnf-automatic: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1279773
but other than that, it appears to work fine.
For those wanting to know which processes need to be restarted after update,
there is the appropriately named dnf needs-restarting:
As the documentation mentions:
Note that in most cases a process should survive update of its binary and libraries
it is using without requiring to be restarted for proper operation.
There are however specific cases when this does not apply.
