Bug Description
Binary package hint: update-manager
Currently as soon as a new kernel is configured, update-manager updates the restart icon in the notification area to be red, and if you expand the menu it calls out "restart required". However, there may still be other updates running, and it's really not a good idea to restart until those have finished. Update manager should wait until updates have finished before doing this to avoid potentially confusing users that don't realise the implications of restarting with updates still in progress.
