I see two different solutions to help in these situations:

1- A community-based feedback. For example, after updating your system,
you could push a button indicating whether or not this update was
harmless (or solved a bug you had or crashed your system or whatever).
For each update there would be a color or a value indicating how "safe"
is the update.

2- More obvious changelog or warnings (maybe with a dialog warning the
user or a color code, but set by developers, not the user community?).
For "normal" user (like me), it is clearly not obvious why I should not
select a particular update and every update looks similar to me: just a
name in the update list.

I would tend to go with the second solution, because the first one seems
overkill: most updates should be harmless at the beta and after release
stages.

Just my two cents...
