Just a data point for you... I have a hosted server that was delivered with FC1 (it was that or Windows). I have yum updated it through FC2, FC3 and FC4 (yes that includes the 2.4 FC1 --> 2.6 FC2 changeover) via ssh without problems. Now admittedly this does not have much of X on it because it is a headless server box. But still I was very pleased with it being remotely updatable like that and it certainly does remove the pain in my experience.
