I don't think the proposed behavior is bad. An unfocused window isn't
too disturbing, at least for me.

Anyway, if security updates are considered so important, I would
seriously think of making them be installed automatically by default. I
think this is the best way of doing it for most users who don't want to
pay attention to this kind of things (including myself). Expert users
could set the settings manually to not automatic updates.

If that would be done, I'd disable automatic updates if a laptop is
running on batteries.

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
