Re: ACTION-430: Minor editorials

Please no. Expand the AAC if it's only one place. Think of the poor 
readers.

I'm personally good with using "user agent" as a short form of "web user 
agent". Though I'd also be good with not doing it.

Ditto on the "please no".

It's meant to be an explanation of intent and level of usability. It's 
meant to contrast with a more average user. I'd say if even "one of us" 
couldn't find this, then it would fail it's usability test. 

>   1st&2nd paras: "extended validation certs" >> "AACs"? 

More "please no". 

Otherwise, I agree that all else is editorial (and wow on that first one; 
how long would we have gone on with that? :-). Anil, please make the 
changes. 

If you want to pursue any of the above, say a bit more on why.
