Hi Jack,
A specific list? No. Some updates do that to prevent the user from restoring
to a point that would cause an issue for the updated files. Why isn't the
user warned? I don't know, but I do know that some would probably balk at
installing a critical update if some glaring warning came up every time, and
that defeats the purpose of getting the updates out.
