This wording is copied-and-pasted from the other similar tests. I agree
that it's advocating a solution that might be overkill, but if we change
it we should also change the existing messages. I don't mind doing
that in HEAD; less sure about the back branches, as (I think) these
are translatable strings.
Thoughts?
