Hi,

I'm waiting for confirmation from the reporter, but this bug:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=441127

Appears to be asking that we provide an option in the update
preferences to never have the update icon appear.  However, I'm not
sure if users would want:

o Never show the icon, never update the system unless the user runs
the updater from the menus.

o No icon, no notification, but still do updates.

I'm not sure what the best way to address this is, but we may need
different logic to make some users happy.
