 * Hi people,
 * Is there a way to add a note to update-core.php? I had to do some small changes
   on user.php and want to remind me before updating the core.
 * I know there are a lot of dashboard-note plugins. But I really need it on my 
   update page.
 * Is there a way to hook into it via functions.php?
 * Help would be appreciated.

 * I don’t see any useful action hook for that page, but if you dug into called 
   functions or required files, there might be something. The admin area has limited
   ability to have its content altered. You could always have some admin JavaScript
   insert a message after the page loads.
 * I think you know that you’re not supposed to alter core files, since you are 
   aware of the consequences when you do so. Are you sure there is not a cleaner
   way of accomplishing what you want? What sort of user.php changes do you feel
   are necessary?
