​This doesn't show the blank line above "popo" that the prior example
had...​

​Unchanged from present behavior - but its not obvious that the watch line
is center-aligned​

And does everybody agree that this is a desirable change?

​Adding the title is desirable. While I'm inclined to bike-shed this
anything that gets it in I can live with and so I'm content letting the
author/committer decide where exactly things (including whitespace) appear.

​It is a bit odd that the "Watch every %s...." gets centered if the result
is wide but that the title remains left-aligned.

The minimally invasive change would be the following:

>optional title<
>watch<
>(blank line)
>headers
>head-body divider
>body
>optional footer

Though I like the idea of:

>optional title
>(blank line - if Title present)
>headers
>head-body divider
>body
>optional footer
>watch
