Paul; My overall recommendation would be to try this with some custom
SPIN rules.  The light bulb will display whatever is in the comment or
the rdfs:label of a spin:ConstraintViolation instance.  So the
explanation can be anything you want it to be.  The "navigate to" link
will take you to the class the rule is defined on.

I take it that you used the Ontology Profile to define your rules?
Using that method, the rules get added in the background, and hence
going to owl:Thing doesn't seem to be useful.  The label is the exact
same as defined in the W3C standard, so you can easily look them up by
going to 
http://www.w3.org/TR/owl2-profiles/#Reasoning_in_OWL_2_RL_and_RDF_Graphs_using_Rules
and search for the name, such as cax-sco, etc.  To do anything more
would go beyond the standard, and this doesn't seem like a good idea.
