 Mailpoet, when they update have failed to do so multiple times AND
 disappeared from my directory.

 upgrades.  Also disappointed the auto updater doesn't notify the user when
 such failures occur. It would permit me to discover the failure, notice
 the disappearance and reinstall immediately, rather than waiting till I
 notice the plugin is gone.

 Have you tried installing the feature plugin Rollback Update Failure??
