Personally, I doubt that it's that important to update every
image forever because it currently never works. Well, at least
not if you've loaded a few packages which have extensions.

For a release team customer like me a Monticello based system
has a better chance of allowing updates because it provides better
tools to deal with conflicting changes. The update stream lets the
last version win which can easily create problems if there are
any changes from outside the stream.
