If it can be handled automatically, it should. Even experienced users
tend to forget ;-)

We might extend this by flagging all packages belonging to the 'update
stack' with a special 'provides: update-stack'.

Then zypper (resp. YaST) only has to check if packages scheduled for
installation provide 'update-stack'. This would be more generic and
flexible than checking for specific package names.
