 There could also be an option of 'For All Addons: Update All' similar to the commands listed after 'For All Extensions: Find Updates'. With this type of an approach it should be possible to either provide user defined categories or for an extension to do so (I prefer having an extension provide this) where items can be added to a view no matter what their type is. Since only specific actions are available for each type of item it should be possible to display different types of items in the same view as well. This would allow 'For All Addons: Find Updates', etc.

+Following on from what Robert said about updates, I think that the default action of the 'Check for Updates' option on the Help menu should be to check for updates for everything - Core, Extensions and Themes.  There should also be some notification for extension and theme updates in the same way that there is for new versions of the browser.  I know more than a few people who have extensions installed and who don't ever open the EM or TM to check for updates, so they are stuck with the old version of the extension until the old version breaks when the browser updates itself!
