Jeff,

I afraid your definition

//     alarm
//       major
//         upper
//         lower
//       minor
//         upper
//         lower


will be misleading users to the interpretation that it defines a range for major and minor severity with a lower and upper limit each. I think the inverted hierarchy (as shown on the Wiki page)

//     alarm
//       lower
//         minor
//         major
//       upper
//         minor
//         major


maps better to the common use and understanding ("there's a set of lower limits") and is clear without ambiguity.

Cheers,
Ralph
