Comment (by nerrad):

 Just making note of some of the feedback made in slack when
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RQBWTW/p1518097620000187 this was
 announced there]. Click through the link to read.

 Whatever final implementation we land with, '''discoverability''' is a key
 need here to support the goals of this initiative.  So we cannot avoid
 some form of notice

 I'm just throwing out another option as well as an idea:  the WordPress
 “About” splash page is shown after every update.  What about a new tab on
 that page that is colored to draw attention and dedicated to
 healthcheck/php version info.  It can be colored a warning color when the
 php version of the site is “old”?
