Nah. The problem here is that we're going through the SFC. *They* have
the ability to reboot machines, update kernels etc, but they can't
give it to us without also giving us control over servers belonging to
other SFC projects. At Hetzner we have our own account, with full
control over all our servers, and the same would be true at Softlayer.
