Comment (by khag7):

 I'm most of the way through reworking the updates.js to not rely on slugs
 at all. At that point, we can actually ignore the patch I already
 submitted and I will submit a new one.

 One thing I'm waiting on... there is a patch on ticket #18974 which will
 add the data-plugin attribute to solve a different issue. We can make use
 of that same attribute in updates.js to have better jQuery selectors. Do I
 wait for the patch on #18974 to be committed or do I use that patch as
 part of this patch? I think it would cause a conflict later when someone
 tries to commit and the changes were already made.
