To the end is wrong, as it could become invisible due to
line-truncation etc.  Maybe to the new line after the warning?

(And let me say up front that no matter what we do, someone is bound
to come back complaining.  So my personal recommendation is to leave
this alone and let users get used to this, even if it will take some
more moons.  We have bigger fish to fry, anyway.)
