Any update that 'needs' a restart should do it's thing next time the computer is booted up, or during the shutdown process. There is simply no excuse.
I have solved that problem by queueing up 2000 or so downloads in my P2P program of choice (Shareaza) - which takes a good 5 mins to quit out of cleanly, meanwhile the restart process waits patiently in the background. Gives me ample time to save, finish up and anything else that I may need to do =]
your computer will restart on you, and you'll lose eveything you where working on.
