Anyone have interest in doing this, or know someone who can succinctly and accurately provide descriptions for these fields, that either work in both normal and inverted, or change when toggling? This will be a small patch, but could have a non-trivial impact on users new to profiling. I'd rather someone more gifted with language than myself use talent for this, rather than whatever robot speak I'd write.

Possibly dependent on bug 1147143, depending what changes there.
