Note: It doesn't say _anywhere_ that it will update to the most recent version. This discussion is moot. It simply sets the status to "update" - whatever the lib back-end does then.
Good, then we're in agreement.
All the UI algorithm does is to check if a package selectable has a newer candidate.
See, thats exactly the point. The UI _must not_ make the 'is newer' decision. The underlying library (talking to the solver) is the only authorative source of this decision.
I think this is something we need input from users. The issue is that your approach will make sure users will get smoothies user experience, but not possibly not all packages updated, while all other tools provide the more rough functionality, that gives users direct feedback that this particular package cannot be updated and why (dependency conflict). For openSUSE, it might be quite possible that the way other tools work is the one our users expect.
