Comment (by karmatosed):

 Lots of great work from everyone. I would like to catchup here a little
 and find a way so we can remove the feedback label for design here. I'll
 split up my feedback into theme and plugin screen as although together, I
 think that will help frame it here.

 Theme:
 - I like the simplicity of the text link.
 - My big question is will people know what auto-updates means in the
 context of this screen?
 - I do wonder if it's hierarchy should be at the top, it might be but
 considering that is important.

 Plugin:
 - I would lean to style as close to themes as possible, so avoid bringing
 in colors or shape indications.
 - I wonder about the copy for the column 'Automatic updates' and then for
 the enabling link. Perhaps we could have the columns say 'Auto-updates'
 and then the link say 'Enable' or 'Disable'/ Activate/De-activate? I am
 unsure which of those pairings translates better.

 I would like the opportunity to review all the screens in both on desktop
 and mobile once those changes are considered and then look to remove the
 feedback label. Looking forward to seeing this move into the release.
 Thank you again for all the amazing work everyone has done so far.
