Comment (by afragen):

 Thanks @Otto42. I remember when this was added for
 `validate_plugin_requirements()`. For plugins, precedence is for the
 plugin file headers. We could probably remove the check on `readme.txt` if
 we can some definitive statement of all the data that should exist in the
 main plugin/theme file.

 New patch coming to remove parsing of `readme.txt`
