This is going to be a problem for e.g. systems with flaky video
drivers, where often an updated kernel seems to work (i.e. boots fine
to any specified runlevel) but then turns out to have problems
nevertheless (for instance a suspend which doesn't work anymore). You
will never be able to auto-detect that.
So even if this is going to be implemented, can we have an option to
switch this off completely?
Cheers,
Kasper
