Title:
  update-manager shakes + wobbles in Unity Launcher before being ready

Status in Unity:
  Won't Fix
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: update-manager

  From time to time as it desires the Update Manager will automatically
  Launcher itself to provide the user with guidance that updates are
  available.

  When this happens under Unity with the Launcher hidden, the icon with
  wobble+bounce at the edge of the screen to catch their focus.  If the
  user then responds to the call-to-action and quickly opens the
  Launcher and clicks the icon, a greyed-out window will appear and the
  "Updating database…" progress bar will appear for a number of seconds.

  Ideally the user should only see the wobbling "call-to-attention" when
  update-manager has finished computing and the user is able to interact
  with Update-Manager.

  This is likely a case of either/both:

    Unity Launcher being overly-excited about a new program appearing
    Update-Manager requesting attention too soon
