While this is a great generic text, you might want to make it a bit more
custom to each specific patch.  For example, you don't use a domain of 0
in this one, so the text is a bit wrong and confusing if you look at it
stand-alone.

I like the series and the idea, just fix up this text in some of the
patches and you should be fine.

thanks,
