Maybe take inspiration from GhostBSD, where there's a GUI for the PkgBase-like approach that coherently updates the base system packages and non-base packages. <https://forums.ghostbsd.org/viewtopic.php?f=70&p=10137>; > Better use of boot environments with Update Station <https://wiki.freebsd.org/PkgBase>; is somewhat outdated, as a page. Also/alternatively, inspiration from: * the GUIs through which boot environment-friendly updates were managed in PC-BSD and TrueOS – <https://ftp.icm.edu.pl/packages/pcbsd/iso/11.0-CURRENTJUNE2016/amd64/docs/html/sysadmclient.html#boot-environment-manager>; (not the original location) lacks original screenshots, still it's a useful point of reference * the developer preview of Update in helloSystem, <https://hellosystem.github.io/docs/user/components/utilities/update.html>.
