Description
It would be a nice idea if there would be an additional column in the plugin table in the backend that shows whether the plugin is (still) listed in the WordPress repository. The plugin "Plugin Report" (https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/plugin-report/) offers a great solution here, but in this case you have to install this additional plugin.
Background: In most cases, you only find out by chance if a plugin has been closed, e.g. due to a security problem. But if this is displayed, you know early on that there is a need for action.

I have a vague feeling this ticket is a duplicate. I swear I have seen something similar.

After a bit of looking, I found it.
Now, tbh... This would benefit us but what about plugins outside the repo? I once bought a plugin via CodeCanyon and now its not hosted there anymore due to security issues. Those will be missed... But does core need that? Checking outside repos? Thats a whole other discussion.

Replying to NekoJonez:
Thanks for the info.
I had also searched, but couldn't find a ticket for the issue. I already realize that no plugins are included that are not listed in the WordPress repository. In this case, an entry such as "No information" could simply be made in the column. But at least for the plugins from the WordPress repository, this would be very helpful.
