Yeah, of course.

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

That's an unsupported upgrade method. Please issue "update-manager -d" in a desktop install, or "do-release-upgrade -d" on a server or other command line environment.

And before people complain about the command line, this is possible in the GUI as well.

System - Administration - Update Manager

Click "Settings"

Under "Updates" select "Show new distribution releases: Normal releases"

By default if you are running an LTS release, Update Manager assumes you want to update only to the next LTS release. This setting will cause it to prompt you to update to the next non-LTS release and each other from then on.

I guess this is a tiny point, but is there really no supported way to update from the command line?

or "do-release-upgrade -d" on a server or other command line environment. (emphasis mine)

"sudo do-release-upgrade" is the supported command-line upgrade method.
