The TextLine message is thanks to Stewart Bishop while working on the
Wizard stuff at the sprint. I think the ultimate plan is to have the
messages rendered with all the widgets in a similar manner rather than
at the top of the form. This should help add some consistency.

That being said I'm not sure that anyone was planning to do anything
about the others in the short term.
