Many messages that tell you to reboot should actually just tell you to re-login. There's a big difference there, regarding running services.
Yeah, the package manager does not know if you need to reboot or re-login. that would require having a list of software which is known to require reboot for upgrade..
Our updates can be tagged wiuth "needs reboot" "needs desktop relogin" and "needs package manager" restart and we usually tag them. Not all desktop restarts or reboot tags are necessary however, so you only see this seldom.
I'm afraid that for this to work as expected ( that's different from getting it to work) It needs to apply the updates in a all-or-nothing transaction and return sucess or fail. Currently the package manager installs updates one by one using rpm --force.. that's insane.. but it is the way it is :-|
