Comment:

 OK, bulk update process aside, I just added a
 [attachment:ticket:14915:15671.diff new patch] per dd32's feedback that I
 believe addresses the original issue with the single plugin update.

 It adds a "silent mode" to {{{activate_plugins()}}} identical to the one
 that already exists for {{{deactivate_plugins()}}} and uses it when a
 single plugin is updated. So, the plugin is loaded in its iframe sandbox
 to check for errors, but the activation hook is not run.
