 currently keys with more than one word use an underscore, not a hyphen, as
 a separator. `new_version` and `banners_rtl` as example.

 I'm not sure that's actually something that needs doing, the parameter is
 only intended on being used internally by the loop it's in - It seems like
 this stems from the original misunderstanding of how that flag was being
 set.

 3rd-party updaters should never need to touch it, infact they're probably
 doing it wrong if they do, they should only need to set the update in
 `response` or `no_update`.
