The auto-update similar to Mozilla FireFox & uTorrent would be a nice
additional feature to DC++ as an idea, recommendation or suggestion.

Bug description:
I think a new option should be added to the "New updates are available" dialog so instead of the "Visit Download page?" question there should be three buttons: "Install update", "Visit homepage", "Close" (or "Cancel"). The new "Install update" could download the installer of the latest version (url defined in version.xml), close the application then launch the installer.
I think this is not a hard-to-do feature, and would ease the client upgrade process for the users.
