@jwms It's particularly difficult to get the message correctly, the
feature is known as "phased updates", hence it's worded such that you
can search "Ubuntu phasing" and get decent results. If we set "staged
rollout", you could not find results for it. A "phased rollout" might
work.

If we literally said "The following phased updates will become available
soon" or something, we'd run afoul of terminology issues: In APT we say
"upgrades", not "updates" ("update" updates the metadata), and I did not
want to introduce "Phased upgrades" as secondary vernacular.
