Comment (by farinspace):

 Would the ability for wordpress to forgo an update check for a specific
 "installed" but deactivated plugin sound better .. something as simple as
 a plugin comment header parameter .. "UpdateURI" plugin authors provide a
 URI but it would be used as a boolean mostly, asking wordpress to skip an
 update check, which then would give the plugin a chance to hook in after
 activation .. I just want to make a reasonable request for such a feature
 and understand all implications.
