Comment (by matt):

 Just for auto-updates to start is fine.

 You're completely right about feedback mechanisms. I think the only
 automated one we have is a callback if the upgrade fatals and we roll
 back? I know we have that for core, is that also something we can expose
 for plugins on the stats page?

 Plugin authors also have their normal support mechanisms, and a
 significant percentage of people come to .org to provide feedback or leave
 reviews.

 If there were a way to rate and review without leaving wp-admin, that
 would also be amazing for plugin devs, and lower friction than our current
 flow.

 What are first steps and how can we break this down?
