Comment 15 for bug 96705

I'm a relatively advanced user and there was no way for me to feel confident in choosing one of these options without doing research. Not only is the wording ambiguous, but the options are too few. For example, what if for some reason I wanted the security updates to be downloaded in the background? Or what if I wanted all updates to be automatically installed?
These seem like separate issues but they are part of why the ambiguous wording is problematic. Why does one of these options pertain to security updates only, while the other two pertain to all updates? This adds to the confusion. I like the idea of a grid of radio buttons that was suggested, but if the text could be made more clear and possibly have the option to hover over or click on the text for more detailed information, it would help too.
Something should be changed, anyway. I think that this should actually be a higher priority because even though it's an issue of wording, the wording is describing settings for a very important function. I think to say that this is of low importance is like saying that documentation for a given software is trivial. If everything works as intended by the developer but people don't know how the developer intended it to work, the potential for misuse is great.
