 I love updating to the latest version of WordPress, and ideally I'd do it
 as soon as possible. Only problem is that I, like many other sites, run a
 fair number of useful plugins. I usually have to hold off updating because
 I don't know whether any plugins will break.

 It would be great if the update screen could show a percentage of plugins
 that are listed as compatible with the new version. This could be based on
 the developer's own 'compatible to' value, or the user-submitted 'works'
 votes - or both.

 If a new update is available, and I quickly see that 90% of plugins are
 listed as being compatible, or working with the current version, I'm far
 more likely to be comfortable with updating.

 Just a thought.
