I think it's overkill -- more dense text that no one who would need to will
actually read. Frankly, I don't think anyone will care too much, and the
answer is simpler than unsetting stickiness -- just explicitly install the
new version from the solaris publisher.
... the package has moved from ON to Userland ... *only* if you're
using ON nightly bits prior to 2011/06/XX will you possibly notice, and
if you really care (you probably don't), wait until build 168 is out
and run "pkg install //solaris/system/data/hardware-registry".
