Comment (by garrett-eclipse):

 Thanks @afragen

 I understand your preference there but am leaning more with @joyously as
 I'm hoping to get that information more readily available at a glance.
 Personally, when I first encountered the PHP requirement on a plugin I was
 so used to going to the Updates screen checking the all plugins box and
 hitting update that I overlooked one wasn't checked/updated as the
 updating screen only lists the plugins being updated I didn't realize one
 wasn't being done. It was only a bit later when I noticed the update
 icon+number was still there that I went back to find the issue.

 I'm hoping a more prominent notice there will catch users eyes so they're
 aware of the issue and don't simply skip past it as I did.
