I think what you are trying to say is that the user should have a heightened awareness regarding what the installer might do above the "just letting the installer do whatever it does". Requiring physical action from the user when it can be solved with a (sensible at that) option in the installer definitely is not good. I'm sure though that you are not trying to imply "After all the installer could be doing something to the network which isn't even part of the updates, so the user better plug the cable", because I really wouldn't want to debate such a stance. -- Please note that according to the German law on data retention, information on every electronic information exchange with me is retained for a period of six months.
