One click plugin updater is not quite required because the default updater is really efficient and fast without much hassles.

I’ll second the nomination for W3 Total Cache. It contains more options than WP Super Cache. It can do the work of WP Super Cache and WP Minify as well as many other tweaks to improve the performance of your blog.
Other than that, I have used, or currently use many of the plugins you listed above.
