Comment(by mikeperry):

 Hrmm, this might not be a terrible idea. I guess the plan is to only
 transmit these values to check for the out of date message. The download
 link could then be written by check to include these values. However, in
 #6096, we want to try to do away with the check-based notification
 entirely I think. As part of that, we can have *that* UI pass the right
 OS+arch info to the download page.

 We should probably merge this ticket, #6156, and #6096 into a single, sane
 plan in a fresh ticket.
