Strange update process ... No indication of size of file being downloaded. No progress bar. No indication when it was done, except the window closed. I assume it was successful? Checkbox to always accept future updates. Why? No link to or file with list of feature updates or bug fixes. (Thanks for the list, John!)

Of course it should. But if I hadn't saved the emails I wouldn't know what the build should be without browsing the websites. These simple features are pretty standard for PC software update processes & it would be nice if the crack build/delivery crew would do a few upgrades.
