Less alarmist Risk indicators

It would be nice if there was a way to select which risks are displayed on the Sites overview, or to weight those risks.
To me, one or multiple non-active plugins or themes seem a lot less risky than e.g. a plugin that has a known security risk, and they should not be the cause for an alarmingly red icon; I'd put deleting unused / deactivated plugins strictly under «best practice», not «active risk».

Maybe an option to «mark» some risks as hidden would help.
We're also working with SpinupWP Environment and all Sites having 1 Risk (Your WP_DEBUG is set to true).
I hate getting flashed by any risk indicators! 😀

+1 for this suggestion. The risks indicator on the main Sites overview screen should not display lower-risk issues that are listed under "needs attention" such as inactive plugins and inactive themes. There may be a good reason why a plugin/theme is inactive, and it's easy to neglect more serious vulnerabilities if these low risks are prominently displayed on the overview screen.

The «Debug mode available» risk also should be selectable: SpinupWP installations by default have debug set to TRUE, but writing to the log file, where they pose little if any risk.
