 In particular this applies to updates that are always fetched over tor.
 The file downloader should be more robust to failures and maybe
 transparently retry without kicking the user back to the interface.

 In the case of failures I'm not sure if I should force a new circuit or
 not either...

 If/when the update process moves to being done primarily in the
 background, this can pushed back because the background downloader can be
 made to retry properly with less thought about the UX.
