That popup at the top about updates? I always assumed clicking it will take you to the updates page to make the decision.
It does exactly what you assumed. But since this is a remorse item, if you click, page won't open, and if you wait, it will be opened.

Warehouse does not install or update anything automatically. The only thing is enabling self-update channel (adding own repository for updates) at startup.

This could not happen.

Please take a look at post #213.
Update popup is only a shortcut to page "Available updates" which can be opened as -> "My Profile" -> "Show updates".
Even when you are at "Updates", you have to manually select packages for update, and wait extra remorse timeout for action to be queued and executed.

Those subsections will be done in future, with extra marks like 'Harbour tests passed' or whatever else will be implemented.
