The "resistance is futile" style update mechanism of 1PW8 is a downgrade compared to 1PW7.
First of all you don't get release notes neither before nor after installation. Even worse you can't even decide if you really want to update. As soon as you get the notfication the app is already replaced in the backround and becomes active when you restart the application.

The way it worked in 1PW7 was way better and the update mechanism used is in line with almost all non app store applications, i. e.:
* open a message box showing the full releasenotes before the update is going to be installed
* offers options to skip, remind later or install now
