Unsure if I correctly understood that statement. But why is the About dialog
not a good place to show info about a pending update? Especially now with MAR
updater being default on windows.

Mozilla Firefox is a great example of the MAR updater being implemented in the
about dialog. What's wrong with that implementation and why not copy that?

Wondering if this issue here should have high priority. Keeping users updated
is rather important. After all it ensures, they run patched versions with
security updates and important fixes resolving crashes and problems.
