(Toolkit :: Application Update, defect)

After having missed a few deer park updates, deer park can only download one
update at a time. If e.g. 3 updates should be done the user has to Check for
updates and restart the application 3 times, which is annoying.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Deer Park Alpha 2
2. Make sure updates for Deer Park are enabled.
3. Don't use Deer Park Alpha for a few days.
4. Install the update either automatically or using "Check for updates...".
5. Restart the browser.
6. Repeat steps 4-5 until all updates have been installed.

Actual Results:  
Updates were installed correctly, but I had to restart the browser a lot.

Expected Results:  
Only one (or even zero) restarts of Deer Park should be necessary, no matter how
many updates need to be done. All necessary updates should be downloaded directly.
