@Nyssa - depends on your definition of "prompt" but yes, it is a visual warning that you should uninstall it. And in normal usage of the plugin updater (such as installing its replacement) that uninstall will happen automatically. The text that will appear in the description field will tell the user exactly why the plugin has reached this warning state and what they should do about it (such as the name of the replacement plugin or whatever).

I don't want such upgrades to happen automatically because there are people who want to be conservative in upgrading and not necessarily grabbing the latest as soon as it is available. This was the best compromise I could think of to keep the user informed without having plugins disappearing without them knowing why.
