The data is available via LSL - llGetEnv() <http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlGetEnv>. If you think about it, it makes much more sense for this to be a HUD for Residents who are interested in the information. For casual Second Life users, this information creates additional notification pop-ups and create confusion for people who don't know or care that the regions they enter are running different server versions.

This is not a feature belongs in the Viewer. If there's more data you want out of llGetEnv(), I'd suggest filing an SVC feature request.
