[wp-hackers] Auto Update Plugins

[Nathan Rice]

My point was, like Otto's, that there is a permissions issue.  Most people
know to set their permissions on the uploads folder. Adding a new root
director to /wp-content/ is just one more thing for them to think about,
whereas uploads is most likely already set up to be writable by the server
user.
