 I update plugins on my site several times a week. I add a new plugin maybe
 once or twice a year.

 I generally perform the update from the list of plugins rather than going
 directly to updates, as might appear in the admin toolbar.

 From the perspective of usability and efficiency, it would be much more
 useful to have the options "Updates available" under the "Plugin" entry in
 the admin menu, than "Add new". So I am suggesting that this option be
 added to the main admin menu, visible when and if such updates are
 available.

 I am not suggesting that "Add new" be removed.
