GPG Suite Preferences: Auto Update is terribly annoying

I realize this affects most auto updaters. But I’ll be brief; pardon my annoyance.

I really hate it when i’m working on a document and your updater pops up demanding my attention. If I hit escape you only come back to haunt me later.

It’s really …. …. me off

I will stop using your product because of this; I can get gpg from homebrew and it won’t fecking prompt me to update all the damned time.

Yes everyone does this; doesn’t make it right.

Expected
Notification just like when Apple says there is an software update available that does not steal your focus nor your input and allows you to select update or ignore for later.
