I think this does make sense, but then again I love bleeding edge  
things even when I get cut, e.g. I subscribe to Trac commits via RSS  
and build a new version of Adium a few times a day.

Libpurple is a separate framework, right? Maybe it would be possible  
to use the auto-updater to download just a new libpurple.framework  
and back-up the old version. That way in between Adium releases  
people can upgrade their libpurple (if there is reason to do so), and  
if new problems arise they can just revert to a previous 'stable'  
version.
