That's it.  I'm going with 42 pt pink lettering below the plugin  
Description.  :p

The phrasing is easily amended, but I do have to code it into the  
Plugins page in a particular location.  That is the _entirety_ of my  
question.  Phrasing only enters it in that we can't put a long  
sentence in a narrow table cell.

So to get back to the original inquiry -- pic one, or give me option 4:

1) Add text below Version # in the version cell of the row.  "Update not
checked"

2) Add text below Description, but in the same table cell.  Formatting  
to
distinguish it from the description text (italic?)

3) Icons instead of text???  Add it to the "Actions" column instead???
Other ideas?

Here's a test screenshot.  The top three plugins have a different  
version:
