hard summary of what the lists do. We should explain that on the wiki. I 
guess this is too complicated to explain to our users in one sentence 
and it needs at least a page of text. People who do not read that have 
you just lost out.

May I opine that the "Safe" information would be helpful to me in the 
WUI. Perhaps we can be more explicit, or better explain, such as is 
often done with RBLs in mail server settings, where lists are sometimes 
described in terms of their likelihood to cause false-positives.

It's all well and good in the documentation, but a quick 
"Safe|Moderate|Risky" listing in the WUI will prove handy, IMHO.

Just my $0.02 as more of a user than a developer,

Tom
