Comment (by afragen):

 Firstly, the expected behavior is how it currently displays. This was done
 very intentionally with design feedback. The notice/warning is very
 explicitly tied to the **Requires** data displayed directly above in the
 plugin row. A similar message for **Required by** is located in the same
 place but not styled similarly.

 Admin notices are fundamentally different from plugin notices and simply
 because data may or may not be styled as a notice doesn't necessarily make
 it an actual notice. Plugin update notices occur in the
 `after_plugin_row_{$file}` hook and are not present except when an update
 exists. The message regarding plugin and plugin dependency interaction is
 present all the time. Placing it full width could potentially be more
 visually disturbing, my opinion.

 If we want to go down the path of making every type of notice, no matter
 how it may be displayed, full width, then I believe a much broader
 discussion is needed. Currently all we have is opinion. We also don't know
 how this might change with the **wp-admin** redesign.
