Good question, and I'd be very surprised if there is no answer. Killing evolution and Gnome panel should be a very visible issue and CentOS has the dubious luxury of some time elapsing before updates are duplicated to become aware of any bad effects.
This is true ... and Les, I'll appoint you as the guy who reads all the redhat bug reports and updates this list when there is an issue.
I don't think I see the right place to look for early warnings for things with real user impact yet. Is there a place where RHEL users complain in public or ask if others have similar problems before officially reporting bugs? I don't think I can prioritize the 700,000 bugs listed in the tracker and the errata listing doesn't appear until after the fix is released.
