IMO doing anything to running services on package upgrades is generally evil. 
(occasionally a necessary evil, but not in this case).  General case is that the
admin may have made config changes which they do not yet want to apply.  They
may want to do a graceful restart to avoid kicking off active clients.  etc.

Doing an httpd restart for a module upgrade would definitely be very evil
(imagine "yum update mod_foo mod_bar mod_baz ...").
