To fix this, I think we need:

I'd certainly be quite happy for the HIG to include a list of common
alert messages... we only give one or two now, and they're only
really given as examples, rather than "please use this verbatim if it
fits your situation".
Perhaps we could set up an area on http://live.gnome.org/
UsabilityTeam or (http://live.gnome.org/DocumentationProject) to list
the messages that people most want to see, and decide on their
wording before adding them to the HIG? Seems like it would get a bit
unwieldy to do it in a bug report.
