   Come on. I worked really hard to make updates and especially plugin auto-updates safer. Set it and forget it.

     @andyfragen @webaware Yes! That's the auto-rollback feature I was thinking of - is that in Core by default yet? And does it only check for errors on the homepage? Thinking through my error checking strategy.

     @andyfragen @webaware Ta. Oddly hard to check with a quick search - top results talk about feature plugins and proposals a lot. I can see some other targeted testing will be needed, but it does take out a layer of stress. Thanks for the work on it! 🙏

     @scribe @webaware Rollback Auto-Update was committed in WP6.6 😉

     It scrapes the home page as a test to see if the update causes a PHP fatal error. This is the same test used by core for editing plugins/themes.
