State-Changed-Why: 

The project has always made the assumption that upgrades
will happen in single user mode. While I personally like
to do everything I can to support multi-user upgrades,
the recommended time to run mergemaster is immediately
before reboot, therefore the negative impact noted here
is likely to be both small and short lived, even in
multi-user mode with users on the box.
