Here's the dealio... I have a ton and a half of plugins and hacks. I want to upgrade to 3.5.4 but I am freaked out by the prospect of doing so.

Will the upgrade replace all of my php files and templates?

It replaces your php files and any non-edited templates.

When I upgraded, it all went smoothly, all my plugins and hacks still worked. I guess it only causes anything to break if you had to change a php for any reason.

OK cool - I was worried about my Styles and Templates most of all. Well, since there aren't TOO many 3.5.x hacks to php files, I should be OK.

Do products and plugins ever tweak php files?

As I understand it (not very well - it's a foriegn language to me), plugins and products add code into set places but not into the actual php files so they don't do anything to them.
