Mac updates: Less quitting all and restarting

Petty annoyance wish...

Can we cut back on the compulsive 'no other programs can be running' of the AC updaters? There is no reason for it. (Tip: Once the installation starts, go ahead and relaunch anything except AC & PM. Some requirement!) You can patch the operating system without quitting anything.

On the 1410 patch, it never asked for a password, yet still required a restart. Fundamentally nonsensical.

I agree. Now that we have left OS9 behind it is also time to put an end to needless restarts. The only other things that seem to (properly) require a restart are system upgrades. I can't think of any other application programs that do.

I'm bumping this up in honor of v2. The Library Updater insisted on quitting everything. Give us a break!
