Comment (by psykro):

 Further reading on the the current plugin suggests that it could simply be
 merged into core as is.

 Attention: Version 2.0.0 changed the functionality of the plugin. You are
 no longer required to select “Yes” from a drop down before the theme or
 plugin can be upgraded. The need for an upgrade is now detected
 automatically. So, if you are used to the old functionality of the plugin,
 do not be concerned about the absence of upgrade details on the theme and
 plugin upload pages. Simply upload the theme or plugin as if you were
 installing it, and the plugin will automatically handle upgrading as
 needed.
