It may have been a deliberate change. For example if a background upgrade was being applied to pulseaudio and firefox, for the duration of the upgrade to that app you would be unable to use it at all - firefox goes haywire part way through an update
Is there anything in the release notes about it?

Thus, when I respond to the cue that there are updates available I have to wait for them to be downloaded before they can be installed. Have I missed something?
