I see now. Well, it would be nice to just have a "Auto-close if not
updating", since I like the update dialog to stay open regardless. The other
dialogs (commit, add, delete, etc) can go away. In any case, I do not feel
comfortable selecting any of the auto-close options right now, which means
making auto-close shut down the confirmation dialog probably wouldn't work
for me.
