Maybe if the plugins page makes it clear whether wp.org recognises the 
plugin or not. That way the user is aware that they have to keep track 
of upgrades rather than rely on the automatic notification. At the 
moment you're right that if they haven't seen any message then they 
might assume that everything is up-to-date.
