 As Chris Moody suggested: http://comox.textdrive.com/pipermail/wp-

 Personally i think skipping the plugin if its already installed would be
 best, Not sure how much overhead it'd introduce matching the plugins up
 (Slug/Name in Widget vs. the actual plugins WP has installed vs. reading
 plugins from directory to get names, etc.)

 Could possibly be a good candidate to introduce a cached option inside WP
 for a WP-Slug => Local Plugin file/Plugin Name lookup, Which would aid in
 displaying which plugins couldnt be automatically checked for updates
 too..
