Software Updates is mixed with all available software in Software Center

Hi,

When we deploy software updates (as available) for Windows to the company, they get information that there is new software in the Software Center, which we currently is using for all out software installations. This means that the users see both the updates and all the available software like in the picture below. The problem is that the users sometimes by a mistake installs ALL the software that is available for them, instead of only the updates. For some machines there is up to 50 applications in the list, so this is causing big problems for us.

The only solution we had found that worked was to set the software update deployment as REQUIRED and HIDDEN in the Software Center. BUT this is also not optimal, as the users complains about computers being extremely slow at random times (When updates is being installed...).

My question is:

1. Is there any planned fix for this? (Like adding an extra tab called Available Updates or something)

2. Is there any software solution that can be used as an alternative to the Software Center that can handle this?
