The wording seems find to me.

I'm not so sure that is will be as noticable as we would like - it will scroll
off the top of the screen after a large output.  And in cases like reported 
here:

The user would not have seen the message until after experiencing the bug, if 
at all.



How about we implement Ben's suggestion AND have an abridged version of his 
words
on the title-bar?

The abridged version could read: "This is a development version. It may contain 
bugs."

I'm not sure I understand what you're referring to with the link about ftr's confusion about the message and the snapshots? But I'm not opposed to including a non-scary message in the header.
