Thought about doing it this way, but I didn't want to risk
running into a test that was looking for the specific existing
error message. As it was, I was worried about a 'golden file'
style of test, but (so far) my testing hasn't shown that
I've run into that particular style of landmine...
Also, I think having the separate line makes the requirement
stand out more. Can I convince you to move forward with the
wording change as it is right now?
