Well, the debian prerm and postinst scripts should be taking care of
restarting the daemon during an upgrade, so this should be working
automatically.

It should do already, after installation, and on the session start
(after the X session is ready).

Yes, tracks are queued. Once there is a connection available, the queue
is flushed and the tracks are sent to last.fm. This doesn't happen
immediately after the connection is available, though, but only when you
start listening again. This could be improved.

Another limitation is that the queue is not serialized, so if the
process is terminated for any reason, the queue will be emptied. This is
also important to fix.
