Thanks!  This looks good to me.  I've reviewed all the bug traffic and
feel like this addresses the concerns, but not exactly in the way that
Sean, Bill, and Sam preferred.  I'd therefore like to see if this works
for them or if they still feel like it's too strong before I second it.
But if I were the only one deciding, I'd second this wording.  (Probably
not that surprising since you took all of my wording suggestions.)
