Comment:

 Yes, I think you are right. New Identity should not clear the "update is
 available"-hint.

 Imagine there's a new wild 0day of TB going on and you release an update
 hours after, but some user isn't attentive enough and doesn't notice the
 notification to update and eventually clicks on New Identity and ends up
 without the update taking effect for quiet some time...

 (Another alternative could be a forced update that forces a restart, but
 people won't be happy with that)
