We figured out a way to be able to do it before reboot, and this is
something that is needed for systemd and helps usability of traditional
apt systems in addition to system-image systems.

The idea is there are no extra steps for the user to go through, but yes
the idea is there would be a progress meter after the user presses
'Install and reboot' (though even that isn't strictly required but since
it could take awhile, it seems to make sense).

Title:
  hook into system-image updates to precompile policy prior to reboot

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  New
Status in “click-apparmor” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Occasionally users will receive and OTA update that requires apparmor
  policy to be recompiled. Recompiling apparmor policy can take quite a
  bit of time (minutes) depending on how many applications the user has
  installed. While this is only expected to happen on major OTA OS
  upgrades (eg, 14.10 to 15.04), it is possible it could happen at other
  times. This would improve the user experience for developers
  considerably since policy recompiles can be relatively frequent when
  running the development release.

  To improve the user experience, we should detect and recompile
  apparmor profiles prior to reboot but after system-image updates has
  downloaded the new update. This always for the possibility of using a
  progress meter when compiling policy (which we currently cannot).
  Needs design input for when to do it and how the progress meter should
  look.
