Oh my mistake, I didn't realize this was about the new top banner.
(I thought we were talking about the message I added at the bottom.)
Don't mind me, I'm just perpetually confused... lol

Anyway, right now Ivan and I have discussed added an extra file to the *OSX*
depot.
I can easily do the same for the *Windows *and* Linux* depots if we want to
keep it mostly consistent for our own sanity. :)
(Otherwise it seems like we do have some other options, if we'd rather pass
in a CLI-style argument or whatever.)
