Comment (by azaozz):

 This all sounds good but still deals only with comments. Thinking that
 "E-mail me whenever..." should also include upgrade notifications.

 I had this idea for a plugin for some time now (no time to sit down and
 make it): WordPress should be more "vocal" about upgrades by emailing the
 admin(s). The reason is that many users don't log in very often, sometimes
 for weeks or even months.

 Thinking this would be quite handy on the Profile page:

 E-mail me whenever:
 - .....
 - WordPress needs upgrading.
 - A plugin or a theme needs upgrading.
