YOU find it too brief? Or you're worried others will? Because I'm having a hard time believing that you, yourself, wouldn't be sufficiently warned that there's a problem with the epub you're trying to open. Especially after all the discussion here concerning unmanifested files in an epub.

The existing warning is enough. To those who heed warnings, it will more than suffice. To those who don't, no amount of blathering on about the inherent dangers of continuing will. Besides, using the word "images" in such a warning wouldn't be appropriate at all. ANY unmanifested file will be dropped from the epub, not just images. That message would be confusing to someone who got the warning when opening an epub that didn't have any images: "Oh well heck, I can safely ignore that warning. My epub doesn't have any images anyway!"

Besides ... what the new translatable string didn't tell you is that there's more to the message anyway. There's a detail button that will include the file names of all unmanifested files.
