Overall I really like this change.  We could quibble forever about the
details, but that's probably not worthwhile.

That said, I have one quibble :)

I don't think this belongs here - we don't have examples of good SOB
lines - or of anything else.  What this needs, instead, is a link to
Dave's tools document once that goes in.

(We also, in truth, do not yet have a consensus on what the attribution
tags should be, and here isn't the place to try to form one.)

Thanks,
