In addition to the wish list I asked for, for the update control, shown below, it would be nice great to have 2 categories of updates, 1) Non critical update, 2) Critical Update, that way if any build version was critical the update control would check the update and report back that its critical and then our software would insist that the user download the updates up and including the critical update before proceeding, or at least we could nag the user more, knowing that the update is critical. So the idea is that the update control could know if within the updates ready to download there are critical ones.
"A few things I would like to be able to set in the Automatic Updater properties:
1) Only visible if there is an update either to install or to download, or if the control is downloading an update, basically if there is an update. I know I can do this by hooking into the "UpdateAvailable" event but it would be nice if the control did it for me.
2) Dont hide and show when the mouse goes over, always show the full message, not just the icon."
We plan on adding "update channels" that will solve the critical vs. non-critical update problem. That is, you'll be able to put your user on the "critical only" channel and they'll only receive updates you classify as critical.
We don't have an exact release date planned, though. I can say it is a priority.
