--- Comment #7 from Danny Roberts <da...@thefallenphoenix.net> ---
I've been thinking about this recently and if a purely technical solution isn't
apparent (and it doesn't seem to be), perhaps a workflow solution would do the
trick. So instead of:

1. Single left click on Update icon that drops down to show number of updates
and an update button.
2. Discover opens with a message of "Checking for updates...".

we might have something like this:

1. Single left click on Update icon which immediately loads Discover (on hover
says "Updates Available" or similar).
2. Discover opens with a message of "Getting full list of updates..."

I feel this would be better as it doesn't set any expectations that X amount of
downloads are available & gives the impression that the Updater/Discover has
only just appeared so it being in the process of getting all the updates seems
normal.

Though in some ways imprecise I believe this is how things are still done on
Windows & people aren't unhappy about it there.
