Description

Current pfSense setup does not make a distinction between security updates and general updates. The latter requires a reboot more often.

It would offer better security (certainly concerning the recent SSL vulnerabilities) to give the user the possibility to let the security updates apply automatically.
(daily/weekly/monthly)

Maybe detect if a reboot would be necessary and email the user before applying if necessary?
