 When I start my Tor Browser 7.5, it starts up, and gives me an about:tor
 page with a black arrow trying to get me to click on stuff.

 Shouldn't it instead just say "oh, you need to update, I'm doing that for
 you now"?

 When I close down my Tor Browser 7.5 and start it up again, I get the same
 black arrow, even though it could have already known from last time that
 it was going to be out of date.

 (I've gotten used to the choices that yawning made in the sandboxed tor
 browser, where it checks for an update on startup, and if there is one, it
 updates me then.)
