I find it difficult for anyone to expect updates to complex interdependent
running binaries to continue to function correctly while and after updates to
them are applied. I always turn off automatic desktop updaters and update
notifiers, usually exit X before applying updates, and when not, restart
immediately after application completes, if not reboot the system.
I agree with you, in the sense that it is probably unrealistic to expect
that a session will continue to run for an infinite time after
components have been updated. I have not, so far, had a session
deteriorate due to updates being performed but lacking a logout/login
session.
