Yes, though I’m looking at this right now.

I do have a question here though. If I understand the dialog, this is to 
provide a way for people to upgrade packages they have installed, and to tell 
them if their is a newer version or not. So my question here is why do you need 
the latest version for *every* package instead of just the ones you have 
installed?

If you narrow it down to just the ones that are installed, then the number of 
HTTP requests needed with the current APIs goes down from ~80,000 to likely 
<100 or even <50 in most cases.
