Why not just have a way for us to declare if an update is available via
a web site.  Everytime you start the mod, it checks the web site somehow
  where the mod author can define what the latest version is.  If the
user's version isn't the latest, it alerts them and gives them a defined
link to the latest version for download.

I don't think Vapour is ever going to become very popular.  Most users
dislike having to run Steam.  They're certainly not going to use a
program that's similar yet not necessary.

Yea I wouldn't count on steam giving us access to auto update.  It would be
to much overheard for them, first they would have to create a special mod
makers version of steam, then they would have to create individual accounts
for each one of us, then they would have to give everyone space to host
their mod...  Eventually the project might take a month if valve does decide
to work on, to bad thats 2,591,999 seconds to long for valve to work on
changing what they have.

Maybe they'll eventually allow us to automatically update our mods and
