Well, there's the long and the short answer.

The short answer is simply send your proposed plain text to
the bug-list (that's  and someone will
pick it up, vet it, add any necessary formatting and guide 
it through the updating procedure.

The long answer (that's 'long' in the sense of more work for
you, but also more rewarding!) is to read the section on
doc work in the Contributors' Guide:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/contributor/documentation-work
and work from there.  You'll get plenty of help, should you
need it.

I concur. "Warning: Version not found" explains what is going on, much
better.

As Gus Baird once said, when something goes wrong in a program, you should
inform a user in the least surprising way.
