If someone else does post this to BugTraq, is there a mechanism by
which we can follow up with an addendum?

What I want to avoid is someone making the bug sound more serious than
it is. As long as there's a way for us to correct any misimpressions,
then I'm happy with doing nothing until if/when we see a first post.

(Of course, agree we should fix it in trunk and 1.0.1.)
