At the moment I think the changelog of the selected update should be in a pane that has zero height by default, with a splitter to enlarge the pane. You can see the splitter at the bottom of the list in <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdateHandling#expanded>. I'm open to other ideas, though this would be a whole lot easier to discuss if changelogs were human-readable. >> #4: Morph the main window into the installation progress window.
