I was thinking about adding "sorcery system-update" to chron on one of 
my servers as some of you have done, but kind of chickened out since 
ther is a potential for bad things to happend during unattended updates. 
This gave me an idea though: wouldn't it be great to have some kind of 
subset to "sorcery system-update" with the following differences:

1. Abort spell update if there are new/uncached configuration options 
and store the aborted ones into some kind of queue for later manual update.
2. E-mail friendly output, eithet to email directly to the admin or 
include in chron output/mail.

What do you think? I'm sure there are more things to add to the list, 
but it's a start.

Yes, I could help with this. Just show me the full sourcery documentation ;)
