No. I've just answered a post (which even has a different subject)
nodding the fact that it's always ignored that in-app auto updating is
not everything and for every environment.
In addition I mentioned that there were other decisions which makes it
very hard for different deployment types.
Personally I don't care where the version appears. In my case the
version is already available in the system's package manager.
