vBulletin does the same thing. A "call home" tag that checks your version and if it's not the latest patch, vB will make it very clear that you have to patch...

I would imagine this is related to the vB call-home copy protection -- very well done/seamless to the admin.

I would support xcart if they implemented such a feature.
