Hey Valent,
Fedora does notify you that a reboot is required if you update the
kernal. When the updater is done running it asks if you want to reboot
[NOW] or [LATER]. It's not a pretty splash screen, it just works.
You missed the point. Opensuse warns you BEFORE installing the kernel
and asks you if you want to update the kernel. Fedora just does it and
tells you that you should reboot as soon as possible.
Do you see the difference?

Hey Valent,
FC8 warns you that a reboot will be required if you check the package
details before you launch the install. The packages that will require a
reboot are marked with what looks like a little recycle icon. Not a
pretty splash screen, it just works.
