Right! I've been thinking to do that for ages. Maybe a good time to set up a test system. Up till now I do a backup of the whole server, so an update - done in 15 minutes, if the update fails it takes another 15 to restore. 

After you set up a staging environment and have enough disk space, just zip your root files and export your staging database — you can restore everything in about four minutes. Do it!

the real reason to have staging is so one can with confidence install new front office features to improver visitor experience,  without they tend not to improve visitor experience, change some .css, add a new module feature, switch on faceted search etc.
