Comment (by KZeni):

 Question... does this also accommodate a plugin/theme update that's fully
 completed, but then actually has a bug in the latest release that causes a
 fatal server error?

 I know WP has precautions in place when trying to activate a plugin
 that'll cause a server error so I'm thinking this might be the case for
 what's being proposed here (just applying to when updating a plugin with
 it then rolling back if an error is encountered.)

 If that isn't being accommodated, currently, is there anything preventing
 that situation from being included in this functionality as well?
