Well, the title isn't normally centered, but yeah, that is odd. Yeah,
that is odd. Come to think of it, I think I might have expected the
title to appear *above* "Watch every %s", not below it. That might
decrease the oddness.

As for letting the committer decide, I don't care about this
personally at all, so I'm only looking at it to be nice to the people
who do. Whatever is the consensus is OK with me. I just don't want
to get yelled at later for committing something here, so it would be
nice to see a few votes for whatever we're gonna do here.
