If you implement any mechanism to block an update, that is ok from my 
side. but I think
is not good, if an update will promote to a higher stage without the 
explicit permission
of the maintainer which is responsible for it.

I will agree with you, if package A will depends on B, A can be only on 
a stage lower
or equal then package b. If you break this rule the user will running 
into the broken
dependencies issue that is very annoying for users.
