SUMMARY
with offline updates we are currently seeing a lot of complaints about having
to reboot too much. while that kind of ties into how often we notify about
updates (bug #436927), I expect the way we advertise the reboot is also not
ideal.

users apparently feel prompted to reboot immediately, but realistically we
really only want them to shutdown their system ... eventually (and be aware
that the next bootup will install updates - bug #436924).

with that in mind it may be a good idea to grab the VDG and come up with more
appropriate notification wording.
also currently the reboot notification icon is a fairly aggressive orange, a
new icon with more muted green option may be more reflective of the lack of
urgency. 

if the user doesn't reboot for 3 days there might be an option to throw up a
reminder notification with the original iconography and message though. I am
not terribly convinced a person that doesn't reboot for 3 days will be swayed
by our notifications though -> might be needless complexity
