Description

When I update my npm or bower packages, NetBeans does it one by one, synchronized. For this, it opens the output window. When I hide it and I do smth inside the editor, while installing another one, it will open the output window immediately again and again, after one is finished, it will open the same with the new installation.

So please add an option to avoid that, this is a pain in the ass, often you lost the focus and type smth, which is not in the editor anymore. It should not open the output window for each update package. So maybe someone wants it, so we need an option here to not doing it.

Because it is also inside the progressbar inside the statusbar.

Cheers
