 On the admin dashboard, the RSS feed widgets load via AJAX to prevent
 slowing things down. The browser update check (via Browse Happy) doesn't
 do this, and blocks the dashboard while the API request happens.

 `wp_dashboard_browser_nag()` should be converted so it works the same way
 as the RSS feed widgets (use the transient data if it's there, trigger an
 AJAX request if not).
