At the moment when you click 'update' in the Workbench 'Packages' UI, it immediately updates the package polling the web and grabbing the latest content. The first time I did this I was surprised because that's an inconsistent approach with the very risk averse approach that's been taken around upgrading transformers where you get warned about proceeding and you get to check what's changed in the UI. To find out the changes with the package you need to know to go to the Hub.Safe.com and go and look at the changes there. Can we have a 'View Changes' button for packages in Workbench please?
