Comment(by mikeperry):

 Hrmm.. it seems like a floating panel might be hard to distinguish from a
 CSS popup in a malicious webpage, especially since it seems bound to the
 interior of a browser window.

 What if we turned the Torbutton yellow, changed the tooltip text, and
 added a menu option that sent users to the update link? Would people
 notice this, or we still need a popup?
