I agree with including a standard disclaimer in the headers of every
*.answers posting: a lot of people are under the impression that *.answers
approval gives a FAQ some type of official status, and a standard disclaimer
might help clear up some of the resulting arguments.
And the disclaimer should go in all (or at least all new) FAQs, since
putting the disclaimer in just the controversial FAQs would cause the very
misunderstanding you're trying to prevent.
