Like many enterprise servers, my Jenkins server does not have Internet 
connectivity.

Updating plugins is always a tedious bit of work to see what plugins have 
new versions in the Update Center, and then going to 
http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/download/plugins/ to find them by their 
folder name, downloading the latest .hpi [renaming the subset that download 
as a .zip], and then using the Advanced tab of the Update Center to upload 
and install those downloaded files, one by one.

Then today, I upgraded to 2.0, and it wants to install 31 plugins, and my 
eyes glaze over at this amount of work.

I would like to make a feature request to have the Update Center have a 
client-side installation/upgrading mechanism. Where checking a plugin to 
install or update would download the file on the client, and then use the 
flow that already exists in the Advanced tab to send the file to the server 
and install it. Then, the Update Center would "just work" again, even for 
servers that can't connect to the Internet.
