Valve doesn't check mods, i think they do communicate to some mods (sourcemod) with upcoming changes that could break functionality. But thats about it, they have no reason to take the mods into account since its 3rth party.
You cant honoustly ask valve to check every plugin when there is a new update, thats just too much. As for updates, make sure your servers are automaticly updated.. then at least your server is up. And since they fixed some exploits and kept the mailinglist, there off the hook for now :p But i have to agree with you, a "heads up" when the update is coming would be greatly appreciated.
