This seems sound enough, but if the DBA and/or SA can't be bothered 
reading the docs where this topic features quite prominently, I suspect 
the warning messages won't have much effect either. Basically ISTM we're 
talking about people who *need* a clue howitzer.

This will possibly hit us more now we have the Windows port (or maybe 
not, if the Windows servers are regularly rebooted ;-) )
