Stephen, I think Jon's column name and values make a lot of sense.
That being said, I do agree with your point of making it clearer for
the person viewing the output, I just don't know if it would be
confusing when they wanted to change it or were trying to understand
how it related.

Agree on the extra spaces in the docs.

Jon, I think you inserted your changes improperly in the docs. The
classifications apply to the type, not to security.

Also, you need to use the %s place holder and the gettext_noop() call
for your values as well as your column name.

Compiles and tests ok. Results look as expected.
