Comment (by joedolson):

 I'm not hugely bothered by the 'Updating' message - it's not totally
 inaccurate; the "Updating" process has begun, even if no actual files are
 being written yet. But I can see an argument for an intermediate notice at
 this stage of 'Requesting authentication' or something like that.

 So, thinking about my own process, if I cancel from updating a plug-in in
 a situation like this, it's usually because I'm intending to switch
 contexts to find my FTP info for the site. If this is common, it probably
 doesn't matter too much exactly where the focus goes, as long as it's
 proximate to the initiation. The checkbox for the plug-in would probably
 work.
