The whole "dream" assumes that the downloads are already
downloaded/quickly downloaded...

Consider users with slow connections, so the downloads take time to be
initially downloaded download is larger the longer the wait time!

Downloads take time, also when the user is connected to via a secure
*wireless connections the connection is established ONLY after login* ,
which allows the passkey use!

However, Windows does give the option to download the updates in the background then notify when they've fully downloaded. 

Would a behavior similar to this make the "updates on login," option any more tempting?
