 * Switch to using `Plugin_Upgrader::bulk_upgrade()`, so that maintenance
 mode is used for currently active plugins.
 * Add a client side queue for updates, so that users can click as many
 updates as they like, without needing to wait for the previous one to
 finish.
 * Add support for the Bulk Action checkboxen.
 * Decrement/remove the "Updates Available" link, as plugins are updated.

 An interesting problem is going to be handling multiple users (or one user
 with multiple tabs) clicking the update/install button while other updates
 are happening - we probably need something to handle the Ajax call
 responding with "maintenance mode".
