Just a very little thing, but would it be difficult to make the orange-on-black indicator at the bottom of the screen during downloading, act like a real progress bar?  The orange animation that goes across the screen several times does not seem to relate in any way to the percentage of files downloading.
 
Once those files are downloaded, the green progress indicator correctly reflects the time to install them.  That's the way a progress bar is expected to work.
 
Thanks.
 
 

My longstanding gripe is that the "More Information" link doesn't link to a page showing what has been updated, it usually just links to the main product page for the product being updated.

I'm guessing the reason it is animated that way is so that if the download stalls for a while, you can see that it is still busy. If it was a regular progress bar, the bar would stall as well and it would look like nothing is happening.
 
It's for this reason that Microsoft added the glowing animation to the standard progress bar in desktop applications. That fulfills both user interface functions; showing how much of a task has been completed and that the task is still being worked on even if there is currently no progress.
 
So, you're right. It is just an animation and not an indication of progress.
