+ 7495 open cp software-updater on first boot after an update
I don't want this! I keep shouting about it and no one seems to be
listening! Home absolutely needs to be home base, especially after an
update. I'm fine with tossing up a non-modal alert at boot which
prompts the user to update right away, with a button which reveals the
software update control panel module, but I'm NOT OK with anything
which, unbeknownst to the user, flits them away to some other part of
the system without his/her consent.

Just installed 2258 here, my first impression was that home page had
hung/locked-up, noticed no Journal, tried to click an activity to
launch something and then was dragged away into the control panel auto
update. One of those non-modal alerts (horizontal black strip that
pops out from below the toolbar) would be more friendly. The XOs been
downloading updates for 10+min now. BTW: I do really like the standard
updater (progress bar still needs some tweaking so it keep a grey
outline and isn't all white fill), just would be nice to alow the user
to trigger it***
***I also felt the the behaviour where software update starts as soon
as you click on the control panel icon was a little off. Would be more
user friendly to display the updater interface with a button to
clearly initiate the update process. Currently, if a kid goes poking
about the control panel UI (a good thing), they are going to be
triggering unintended update attempts for sure – on all kinds of slow
network topologies...
