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".

(Which isn't to say I don't think a library of common alerts/errors would be even better, but either way we still need to decide what should be in it.)
