Hi all,

first of all: Emily, you are awesome and we don't tell you nearly often enough!

Something that hasn't come up here yet, but we need to keep in mind is
translations and they complicate things a bit.

We install translated notices now, which makes it much harder to tell which
ones are "unchanged". And on the other side it makes it harder to insert new
nice notices for everyone. It's even hard to determine which language was used
when installing or which language a notice is in. 

Some other ideas:
* Have a page on the wiki with the new nice notice sample templates, so it's
easy for libraries to get them (sometimes you might just break something and
want to go a step back).
* Have a deprecation period for the old syntax to help people switch. I think
that's almost a given.
* Visually highlight notices in the old syntax that require updating?
* Maybe a wild idea: Could we have something like a "reset to sample notice"
button? If it could get the translated version from the YAML files that would
be pretty awesome too.
