I hope this is germane. Shouldn't this be a "bug" if the system admin cannot update the package at a time of her choosing? As far as I can see, apt thinks that 'PackageKit' is up to date, so the admin must wait for (but cannot predict when) the popup to occur.
If the typical user of the box getting the pop-up messages does not know the root password, all the popup does is degrade the user experience, security/policy issues aside.
