Understandable.
I should also say that browser upgrades are different from whole OS
upgrade (not to mention we have PPA's and similar stuff).

That said, the setting for automated upgrades already exists
(system->administration->software sources->updates). If you feel this
is important, consider proposing a more prominent place to let users
opt-in automated upgrades. (like, say, Ubiquity. We may place a
"Perform the upgrades for me" checkbox just under the 'autologin'
checkbox)
