Well yes - I wouldn't want something like a popup nagging me every time I start the editor - and I bet a lot of people don't look at the logs often if at all unless there is a problem. so wouldn't see a simple log message - and if they did would they then "panic", upgrade and possibly break their working system ? Also I run quite a few systems not connected to the internet so the test would fail.  
I guess it's good to know but what do we actually want to do with the information...
