Ability to edit the "Update in progress…" message or an enhancement.

Currently, user's only see that "An update is currently being installed on your computer. Please, do not try to start <process.name>."

It would be good if we could edit this message, or alternatively, if you could add a statement asking them not to reboot. This would help prevent issues we have seen, where users reboot and break the update entirely.

    Being able to customize or add a clear warning text not to reboot or force-close things would save us from so many user-inflicted breakages during background updates. Definitely a much-needed feature for the Publisher!
