 Replying to [comment:1 atomicjack]:
 > - When a plugin author submits a plugin update, there is a checkbox
 "Does this update fix any security issues?" or similar, and if checked, it
 sets 'security' to 1.

 It wouldn't work exactly like that, because plugin updates aren't
 submitted through a form. It is all done "programmatically", you might
 say. But yes, there should be some way for the plugin author to mark the
 update as a security update. This would probably be a flag in the readme
 file, maybe in the Changelog or Upgrade Notice sections.
