Actually, I'm the one who missed your question.
You are right, the reasons to force a manual upgrade can be many. I
tried to fix that with commit b0e9acb4 on the blueprint.
It's a shame that we don't provide more information on why it is not
possible to do an automatic upgrade. The resulting dialog is a bit
mysterious but the different reasons are explain in the documentation. I
think that's how far we can get for the moment.
I let you think about how hard it would be to be a bit more informative
inside that same dialog, and decide on how much you feel like improving
on that.
I also added commit c417569 on feature/incremental-upgrades-integration.
