Hello,

I just realized that the "plugin is broken"/"plugin works" feature is missing. This is a huge step backwards for me, since I rely on this feature a lot.

I know that not many people used it, especially for most minor plugins the results weren't very meaningful. However for huge plugins like WooCommerce and W3 Total Cache it preserved me from updating to a new version with critical errors. I know about backups and dev testings, which are both very important, but this user feedback was also very useful for me.

The latest version of W3 Total Cache for example had around 20 people saying "not working" and only 1-2 saying "working". Now people don't have this kind of "warning" and many might update, experience the same bugs. This could be avoided with the simple, yet important feature.

So I kindly suggest to reconsider integrating it again. I say this as a user, not a developer.

Thanks
Daniel
