No more appliction updates and suspicious store behaviour with Vaarainjärvi

Could be a bug, could be a feature, could just be coincidence... But since I installed Vaarainjärvi, I have not received one single update for applications I have already installed. (Although I see new applications in the store every now and then.)

This wouldn't be so strange in itself - maybe developers just aren't as active as usual during the holiday season - but also the behaviour of the store changed compared to previous versions (including Uitukka):

Before Vaarainjärvi, when I went to the "My applications" page in the store client, I could watch the list grow as applications were sorted alphabetically. Every now and then, sometimes only after a few seconds, one of the apps would be pushed on top of the list because there was an update available.

Now, when I open "My applications", everything's right there, the list is static and doesn't give the impression of anything's being even checked for updates. Is this supposed to be a feature like "Don't confuse user with dynamic list"? (Didn't find anything about it in the release notes.) Or does it mean what it seems to say: store never checks for updates?
