Now that I think of it, update-manager (at least in jaunty) does show all the updates for the current distro release,
even when it shows the button to do a dist-upgrade. I think part of this bug is thus fixed now.
Since jaunty, we also don't have the "new updates available" notifier in the notification area, by default. I wonder if it is reasonable to close this bug, or at least lower its importance to low?
