Thanks for the clarification. Suggested terms - deferred install or staged install - sequenced install
I am not happy with the term following "deferred" or "sequenced". People may read too much into it (e.g., does sequenced updating sequence installs too?). perhaps * "operation".

This section list questions that we need to answer by the end of M3 to decide what we deliver in 3.4 will look like. The download before the installation is not on this list because it is already decided that we will be doing it and the API work to allow that has been done as part of the refactoring of the IDirector that got committed yesterday by Susan. I think I call that "eager download". To avoid further confusion which terms do you think we should use for each of these? My proposal: "eager download" to refer to download before installation and "staged updated" to refer to updates that must be happening. Note that I'm not happy with any of these.

For example, you might push all the GBs of content to a few thousand machines over a couple weeks and then trigger them to update all at once overnight or some such. Both the scenario you outline and this one are important/interesting...
