3		Yea, there were some discussions about another "filtered view" on the Plugins screen. Think I proposed it initially but now I'm "on the fence" about this. The reason is that when a plugin has unmet requirements it is in an abnormal/erroneous state. Generally this ~~can only happen if a plugin with unmet requirements was installed from FTP, or a plugin that is required by other plugins was deleted from FTP. Both of these are pretty rare edge cases~~.

5	5	Also as @desrosj points out above the filtered view would have to show all installed plugins with unmet requirements, including any that require newer PHP or WP versions. These cases also are quite rare as far as I know and can generally happen when using FTP (without verifying that WP and the server meet the plugin's requirements), or perhaps when moving a site to a server with older PHP version.
