Łukasz,

That will probably work.

What happens when a dependency gets updated multiple times in a
release? Will it be listed multiple times (since it shows all issues
with that type)?

My reasoning was:
* When you need to do a quick upgrade due to a fixed vulnerability you
just want a quick checklist of the things that need to be
changed/checked
* At that time the developer doesn't realy care for the other
improvements/upgrades (which are already listed now, and can be
checked by anyone interested)
* When a dependency gets updated multiple times, the only version of
interest is the one used in the release.

Regards,
Stefaan Dutry (sdutry)
