 As it stands, when a plugin is removed from the directory, for either
 breaching the directory rules, or have a security vulnerability, sites
 that use this plugin are not notified.

 I came across a plugin today that allows site owners to add a message when
 a plugin is removed from the directory: https://wordpress.org/plugins/no-
 longer-in-directory/

 Now - i feel this should be moved into Core; as it will help site owners
 know when they're using a plugin with a security vulnerability or another
 similar issue, and overall help sites remain secure.

 Opinions?
