Description
In general, the Updater is quite good, but due to a few changes we wanted to make for ImageJ2, it can use some stabilizing. Also, feature requests have been postponed due to the move.

A couple of things were done this week which I did not add tickets for: the Fiji Updater was rather seriously broken by the fact that only ij-updater-core was updated, but not ij-core nor ij-ui-swing-updater.
Likewise, a bug was squashed that prevented any uploads by the UploaderService being initialized to null.

Today, the updater was uploaded with the following improvements:
- when updating the updater, the updater core is updated as well as its dependencies, along with all available front-ends' .jar files (and their particular dependencies).
- the front-end's .jar file will be added to the URLClassLoader so that the updated updater can be started.
- if the user interrupts the Updater startup, no attempt is made to open the GUI (which could result in inconsistent data).

- Summary changed from Improve the Updater to Improve the Updater (2.0.0-beta5)
Dscho & I discussed some miscellaneous desired improvements:
- Left-clicking anywhere under the status/action column always pops up context menu even when trying to shift select multiple things. It would be nice to somehow improve this behavior. At minimum, it would be nice if the click did not nuke your selection.
- Table columns should be sortable by clicking on a column header.
- If you select multiple items with more than one status/action state, then right-click, you do not always receive all logical options possible to perform (such as "Upload it").
- "Remove it" should instead be called "Mark obsolete" to make it clear that the file will be removed from the update site.
- It would be nice if were possible to quickly see the update site with which each file is associated. Perhaps a new column in the table listing the update site? (In the meantime, the filter e.g. "View files of the 'ImageJ' site" can be used.)
