Prevent people from updates with critical components

Yes, that's totally correct!

And from my point of view, really many people don't read release notes 
(including me). This are espacially new and unfamiliar users, but also other 
users, who think, if they release an update, it would work on most machines 
and of course every user thinks, that he owns such a pc. Another point is, 
that unfamiliar users may don't understand the notes either (I don't know, 
because I don't have read them ever, not the gentoo ones, not ubuntu ones).

But such a system has the advantage, that really nobody can say afterwards, 
hey, you didn't mentioned, that it wouldn't work after the upgrade.
