Just update what's necessary.  What a concept.

Yes, please.  The sooner the better.

As long as the testing is at least as thorough, and reverting is very  
easy, why _wouldn't_ this be a good idea?

I gotta say, all this talk of CPAN reminds me of when I first started  
using Python and was mystified/mortified at the total lack of  
something similar.  I kind of got used to it but this is bringing back  
the itch in a major way...
