Bruce, as I said very clearly, what MacOS does is neither a
rationalization nor a justification for us doing what we do.  Still,
it's useful information because it speaks to what may be familiar to
some users.

In the end, we are making changes because we think they are for the
best. I would ask you to be patient, and to try to tell the difference
between a bug, and a difference of opinion.

You may well be right, but the way to change our minds is by making a
considered case for the change you want. Start a discussion, gather
facts, make a case.  I know you do a lot for Ubuntu and free software,
in part by filing bugs where things can be improved. That's much
appreciated by me and others. But it would be even better if we could
have these conversations in a good spirit, in the right forums.

Status in “update-notifier” source package in Ubuntu: Invalid

Bug description:
Binary package hint: update-notifier

I see that update-manager is supposed to open in the background, on the advice 
of the "Desktop Experience" team. Aside from the fact it appears in the 
foreground for my window manager, windows should not be opened even in the 
background for the following reasons:

* It is very disruptive
* It is completely different to the past behaviour
* No other distribution does this
