Frankly, something like this is needed so the non-developers or adventurous types don't have to be scared on every update like it is now. On the other hand it's clear there's a few small holes.
I'm not sure how much work would go into this, but anything from [1] which affects any release should get an update. Aside from that it just comes down to a customer easily being notified when there is an issue. (Which would probably be a new feature in IPS) I hope I don't come across as rude since I know you guys are working hard and doing a good job.
