Keith,
Just wondering how to proceed on this change?  I can't really drop the vs prefix since a customer is requiring it.  I can remove the extra whitespace though if you prefer that.

Keith, 
We had a customer request/require the vs prefix; that was the reason for adding.  I agree it's redundant, but figured it was easy enough to change.   

I can delete the extra whitespace easy enough; I just thought it helped make it a little more readable.

I wasn't sure why you added so much whitespace for your descriptions until I ran it. Maybe drop the "vs-" prefix since it's already vendor-specific by virtue of being a vendor specific plugin? The alignment comes out nicer that way.
