 > What if we set up a queue in the session for what updates need upgraded.
 When one is complete, it refreshes the update page, the next item in the
 queue is handled.  Error or not, it just automatically goes through the
 requests and makes it happen.

 Here's how I think it could be implemented without requiring javascript
 and without reaching any resource limit:

 1. User chooses multiple plugins for upgrade.
 2. Store the plugins to be upgraded in an option (maybe use
 set_transient()).
 3. For each plugin, do the normal upgrade.
 4. If all went well, do a JS redirect to the next plugin, or show a
 "Continue..." button.
 4*. If there was an error, show a "Continue upgrading other plugins?"
 button.
