Hmm, guess I've come to this party too late, but I do have one slight concern about the use of Trusted. That term has a specific meaning on at least one GNOME-based secure desktop I'm aware of (Trusted Solaris-- which is the only one I've used, but I wouldn't be surprised if it applied to others, too).

If it's an issue for them, the best I can think of right now is maybe to couch it in terms of safety instead of trustworthiness, e.g. something like: Unsafe application launcher The creator of %s did not mark it as safe to launch. Before continuing, you are advised to check that the launcher came from a reputable source.
