Vince, I use up2date on a regular basis to keep several systems up to date. The features you mention, updating critical parts and apps, while maintaining dependencies are all available through up2date. I'm not familiar with apt, but one feature I found nice is the web interface to up2date. If the RHN daemon is running on the RH server, you can go to rhn.redhat.com and schedule updates, and reboots (be careful with your login info), without doing anything on the server.
