I'm sorry, I think due to our lacking description of how the technology exactly works you're confusing it with existing technologies. What we announced today is not comparable with something like Installatron, they do just version updates. Those automatic updates usually breaks plugins. We only patch the vulnerabilities, without modifying any functionality.

Nope, we work with hosts that do exactly that. Patch and update if it is outdated, fix if it is broken and even remove any malware if it is infected.

Again, what you guys are doing is great, and I don't want to take that way. My only point is that you were not the first and some have been doing that for a while.

thanks,

Well, please, then already describe how it works. And don't forget technical details as we're quite technical 'round here..

Sorry, but you definitely aren't the first: http://support.wpengine.com/wp-engines-security-environment/
To my understanding, the page you are linking to describes a sandbox environment, which is different from what the poster is doing.
