Does anyone know of a plugin for showing focus points in Lightroom 5? Apple's Aperture has this feature built in and I find it useful, so I'm hoping there's a solution for Lightroom.

It shows focus points for all all (post-2002) Canon DSLR and all Nikon DSLR. Currently needs Lightroom 5.

If this is legit and not just well-tailored click bait then you're about to become popular around here.

That's right - Lightroom doesn't allow plugins to directly overlay the photo in the main window. (Rejecting photos in the plugin window has also been requested and will most likely not be possible either, unfortunately.)
The current user interface of the plugin is designed so as to leave the lower photo strip open for viewing, and then the user can navigate by clicking on the photos in the photostrip.
There is/will be an alternative navigation option, which is to move and lock the plugin window e.g. to a secondary screen, so that focus information can be viewed on the secondary monitor. This is functional in the Mac version already, not yet in the Windows version as it still has a few problems - hopefully coming soon.
