 > According to this page:
 http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities#Capability_vs._Role_Table,
 there are no such roles which can only {{{update_plugin}}} but not
 {{{install_plugin}}}

 It's possible to add a role with custom capabilities that would have
 `update_plugins`, but not `install_plugins`. See
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_role add_role()].
