A huge proportion of businesses would make use of this feature by stipulating minimum stock levels that trigger an alert when breeched. The ideal scenario would be an additional dashboard widget showing only 'low stock items' (when they occur), however just highlighting the relevant line in red when the stock level falls below the specified level, would be sufficient for most businesses. A quick glance down your products list and you'd be able to see which products need to be re-ordered.
