I gotta be honest here.. If I need to file and monitor an issue for every 
little change, I'm unvolunteering. That's entirely too much work.

I went ahead and started this about an hour ago, starting at Z and working 
my way up. I made sure revisions was checked and notified the author of the 
one I made fairly substantial formatting changes to. If someone doesn't like 
what I've done, they can always revert it. Mostly all I'm doing is adding a 
break tag and maybe moving things around just a bit so the new teaser makes 
sense. I'm not completely rewriting their descriptions unless I find one 
that's just horrible and then I'll talk to the maintainer first.
