I think the point was that there is no access to the console to use
single-user mode, because of colocation or some similar circumstance.

However, since remote rebooting is an option, Nuno's proposal is a viable
option for colocated hosts to enable softupdates.  I can't think of
anything better, except for maybe somehow supporting network consoles.
