Not for the average user who has no idea how to build their own packages
and is probably not even comfortable with the command line.  The latest
version of all the leading distros (Ubuntu and Fedora at least) supports
this OOTB - for many users it will be a simple "apt-get dist-upgrade" or
"yum upgrade" or whatever.
 
I did not realize when I wrote the above that Gentoo still does not
support this - I just assumed it did because the whole point of Gentoo
is to live on the bleeding edge ;-)
