May I ask what is problem with displaying version information in update manager?
Does anyone believe that is "confusing some users"?
Does anyone know about some user that feels confusing that software packages 
has version numbers?

What about newbie user, which *want* to know the version of package being 
updated?
You recommend to him use synaptic or gconf-editor? If you care of newbie users, 
you should enable
displaying versions back in update manager. Also if you care of advanced users 
- at least their comfort
using their desktop - you should enable displaying versions in update manager.

Please let me repeat: Displaying version numbers does help all users, mostly 
the newbie ones.
And it hurts nobody.
