 In the help tab on the top right of the update screen you can choose How
 to Update. It currently shows:

   Updating your WordPress installation is a simple one-click procedure;
 just click on the Update button when it says a new version is available.

 But then we also added this message since 3.7

   You have the latest version of WordPress. Future security updates will
 be applied automatically.

 See screenshot attached below.

 I don't have any stats or figures on how many time this help box is used
 as I rarely click the help box myself but right after the release I open
 the box and though… I wonder if were confusing people…

 While the update to the text would be quite easy. Should it reflex the
 auto security update and manual updates to the point releases or should it
 just remain the same?
