New issue 20461 by [email protected]: Manually upgrading an extension that  
requires more privileges should not disable it and ask for confirmation
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=20461

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install an extension that requires low privileges
(file:///D:/src/chrome2/src/chrome/test/data/extensions/permissions-low-
v1.crx)
2. Install a new version of the extension that requires high privileges
(file:///D:/src/chrome2/src/chrome/test/data/extensions/permissions-high-
v2.crx)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: You should get a dialog for both and they should both install
successfully.

Actual: For the second one you get an infobar telling you the extension has
been disabled because it requires more privileges. Clicking 're-enable'
brings up the same dialog again.

This should not happen because there is no need to disable the extension
for manual upgrades the user initiated. This is only supported to happen
for silent updates.
