 WordPress, and insert their custom rules within the `BEGIN WordPress`/
 `END WordPress` markers, assuming that any WordPress-related rules should
 go between these comments. These custom changes are then discarded by
 WordPress at a later date, when the rewrite rules are next flushed.

 That's great. It feels like the success of this change depends on the
 actual comment being as clear as possible (whilst still remaining fairly
 succinct in order to get the point across quickly and easily). I'd be
 interested to know what you think of the suggested wording in the original
 description?
