This could be improved even further by making the window disappear when clicking Install updates, doing the work in the background.

The task - assignee mapping here looks backwards to me. Realistically I don't think we'll be able to generally fix this in metacity in Jaunty. I just corrected the upstream bug link for metacity, though.
