Comment (by ctalkington):

 Upon digging through the updater library that I'm familiar with, it seems
 the updates would still work. It indeed will have less details than
 previously available but it won't outright break which is good.

 It seems like moving a few fields between transient and plugins_api
 handlers in such library won't be a big undertaking.

 I'm again all for this sensible reduction in API calls, I just want to
 make sure that there's some notifications made to the developer community
 who may have to update their libraries or dependencies.
