Changes (by westi):

  * milestone:  2.4 => 2.5

Comment:

 While I agree that including something of this ilk in the core is a good
 idea for the large majority of the user-base that want an easy upgrade
 path I think that this is a large feature with major security implications
 and should wait for 2.5 seeing as we are now in the last 30 days before
 release.

 We need to ensure that we have an automatic upgrade capability that is:
  * easy to use
  * secure
  * easy to disable - for the paranoid people
  * easy to maintain
