Comment:

 I uploaded a patch (towards current trunk) that changes the copy to better
 fit the voice of WordPress and to modify the general feel of the widget.

 We thought that it feels too much like a human interaction (written in the
 form of a letter, with a greeting and a complimentary clause). This might
 lead some users to the assumption that someone actively scanned their site
 and initiated this interaction. With the changes to the copy, this now
 feels more like a system check that has identified an issue.

 This is what the patched version looks like (thanks to @xkon for providing
 the mockup):

 A small note regarding the wording:
 @charliespider and I couldn't agree on what form is better:
 > Upgrading usually takes only a few minutes
 vs
 > Upgrading usually only takes a few minutes

 I prefer the former but can quickly adapt the patch if more people prefer
 the latter.
