Where’s The Automatic WordPress Plugin Updater?

I’m beginning to despise some of the plugins that I have installed for WordPress, particularly those dealing with Search Engine Optimization (SEO). These plugins seem to require updates on a weekly basis! Why do I hate this?
- I have to download the plugin time and time again.
- I have to extract the plugin time and time again.
- I have to open Filezilla to re-upload the plugin time and time again.
- It’s irritating as hell!
So, with all these frustrations in mind, I’d like to ask the developers in the WordPress community: Where’s the Automatic WordPress Plugin Updater?
What’s that you ask? Well here’s a list of things it does:
- Automatically backs up your current WordPress plugins folder.
- Automatically downloads the plugins with available updates.
- Automatically installs these plugins.
- Saves you the time and irritation of doing it yourself.
How lazy of me, I know. I just can’t bare to open Filezilla for another plugin update.

PlugInstaller (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/pluginstaller/) goes a long way to making plugin updates easier, but it doesn't work with every plugin…
If you've updated to WordPress 2.5 it's no longer necessary. :P But
thanks for the tip!
