In the past There used to be a modification to the upgrade notifier, that had a checkbox or button to auto update when updates are notified.
That got removed at some point in the past.
I would like to see it put back.
While I like to be notified, I would also like a button either in the window that does the upgrade all automatically.
No need to ever press Y or enter.
Perhaps there is a reason it got removed.
Minor annoyance but I often just want it to update and not tell me why. Also a way to if it fails the update it will do the update in the later updates.
Third how about if it sees failure, to notify the team to help fix the updates that fail?
Another great option might be to have it autoremove after the updates are complete.
Also I see that the terminal window is double the size of the normal terminal window, which makes it look ugly and expand across the dual monitors. Can it be fixed to size to the normal terminal default?
Bring back auto update to the update notifier.

Re: Bring back auto update to the update notifier.
IMO, Autoremove is not something that should be done automatically, even by the auto-update process.
There have been cases where packages are indicated as autoremovable but actually removing them leads to failure of some other applications or some part of your system.
I can just imagine someone enabling automatic updates, and the autoremove option borks up their system...
