Yep, and the Application installer does not give you that at the
moment, unfortunately.

We were dodging all the system upgrade issues when doing the current
Application installer, but they will need to be taken care of
eventually, and better sooner than later, of course.

We need to have some consumer-friendly way of doing (a safe variant
of) apt-get dist-upgrade.  We can start with apt-get upgrade.

I'd say now is a good time to start experimenting.  I would be happy
to add some hacks to the osso-application-installer in sardine...
