I always upgrade from within X. I don't remember ever having serious trouble, although I think Gnome/KDE and Firefox might have trouble. Some display managers will kill your session when they're restarted -- but that hasn't happened to me in ages, so I guess either that was fixed or it's suppressed on upgrade.
