IMO, that would be crazy on the dealer's part. Many ppl could do it properly, then what happens when something goes wrong, car is under warranty but owner uploaded software himself?

I would not want to do that.
You are right, if the upgrade procedure is complex and does not include safety checks, it should not be given to every individual. On the other side, I don't think BMW will make poor upgrade software which might affect the normal working of the car.
